Description

Nestled amongst the farms and grassy hills of O‘ahu is the Gunstock Ranch. A charming, western style ranch, it is both the home of many majestic animals, and also the starting point for a journey like no other on the island.

It can be hard to see O‘ahu’s many incredible locations by most means. Some are outright unreachable by car, and it’s difficult to truly appreciate so many more from the limited number of angles the more traveled roads take you through. Head off-road, break away from the normal and see this incredible island for what it is!

On the back of a well-trained horse, set out to not only see O‘ahu, but to engage with it. Plant a native tree, have a picnic lunch with the most beautiful scenery imaginable, and spend quality time with your friends and family. Experienced guides will teach you about the local area and its many treasures, but all these wonders are only available to those willing to take a more rugged path to see them. Take the road by horseback, and feel the aloha!
