Oahu horseback riding may not be one of the first activities on Oahu that comes to mind when thinking about Hawaii adventures, but riding stables and horses in general are a portion of the Oahu culture that dates back to the days of the original Hawaii "paniolos" or cowboys.

You will have to drive to the more remote areas of Oahu, far from the streets of Honolulu and Waikiki, in order to search out your horseback riding adventure but when you arrive at your horseback riding stable you'll be able to enjoy a more "laid back" Oahu experience.

Some horseback riding stables will even include Waikiki or Honolulu pick-up at your hotel. First time and experienced riders alike are matched with a horse equal to their experience level and many of the horseback riding locations feature beautiful views of lush mountain valleys, luscious jungle or spectacular coastlines.

Helpful Tips from Tom Barefoot:

• Bringing your chaps and spurs on your Oahu horseback ride is not a necessity (just kidding) but you should dress in long pants and closed-toed shoes for your equestrian adventure.
• Children as young as six years old are allowed to participate on some of the horseback rides
• On some horseback rides there is a weight limit of 250 lbs or so for adults.
