Upcountry Maui is horse country. If you visit, make sure to check out the Western town of Makawao and consider riding. Maui has lots of options, which you can incorporate into your vacation, a great idea for those who aren’t used to riding everyday. Here’s a short Equitrekking video on Maui Horse Culture.
