Princeville Ranch 4 hr. Waterfall Picnic RideA truly unique outdoor vacation activity! You get it all with this picture-perfect horseback riding experience. Cross ranch pastures with breathtaking panoramic views of mountains and ocean. You might find yourself riding through our herds of cows, calves and horses along the way. After you tie-up your horse, your adventure continues with a short 10- to 15-minute hike down a steep trail with steps and handholds, through a tropical forest with views of a lush valley and sounds of cascading falls. You will be awed by the power of our fern-lined 80-foot waterfall and the peacefulness of the setting. Take a refreshing dip in the waterfall pool, where you can explore the views on ledges behind the falls or simply float to your heart‘s content. Savor the flavors of our freshly made and delicious picnic lunch. Afterward, if conditions permit, return to your horse via a different hiking trail, complete with a crossing atop the falls, a short rock climb and yet another scenic waterfall setting perfect for one more photograph.
