Kohala’s rugged backcountry and rich heritage are yours to explore with Kohala UTV Adventure! The Refuge of Kings: The Rugged Backcountry of North Kohala, with its impenetrable forests and precipitous valleys, has served as a refuge and battleground for centuries. Powerful chiefs battling to control the island would time and again find themselves stymied by the treacherous terrain as they sought to defeat rebels who had escaped to the deep canyons. Kohala UTV Adventure offers you a rare glimpse of this pristine Hawaiian landscape, and of the history and legends they have inspired. Join us on a guided UTV tour along the rim of the northern-most of Kohala’s seven valleys, Pololu, the Valley of the Long Spear. Safely seated in your nimble 5-seat off-road “utility task vehicle” (UTV), we will meander makai (towards the sea) through the lush pastures of a working cattle ranch before journeying mauka (towards the mountains) where cool mists, verdant forests, and rushing streams await.
