For a sense of how Hawaii used to be and an adventure not easily forgotten, you must experience Waipi'o Valley, an enchanting place that means "land of curving water". From the valley lookout the land drops sharply for nearly a thousand feet. Below is an emerald landscape as fresh and verdant as Eden. A brooding sense of Waipi'o's rich historic past emanates from the valley, which is still except for the pounding of steep waves on the black sand beach and the timeless motion of farmers tending their taro patches.
Sherri Hannum, a long time resident of Waipi'o, began Na'alapa Stables nearly twenty years ago, an outgrowth of her fascination of Waipi'o's history and beauty and her love of horses. Na'alapa is the name of a sheer waterfall on the far side of the valley. Today Waipi'o's Na'alapa Stable is a favorite Island activity for those who want to get off the beaten track.
Enjoy responsive, well-trained, healthy horses. Your individual riding ability will be catered to. Waipio Valley is located about 72 miles from Kona, approximately a 2 hour drive. The valley is one of the most beautiful spots on the Big Island and well worth the trip!
