One of my favorite attractions in Princeville is the Princeville’s cattle ranch. This ranch is a large, scenic area nestled between the mountains and the ocean that dates back to 1831. It offers horseback riding tours, waterfall picnic excursions and hikes, all featuring panoramic views on the ranch. You can also sign up for a private tour and learn the skills of Hawaiian cowboys if you prefer it.
