You can take the entire family on an outdoor expedition when you participate in Kauai horseback riding. Also, when you incorporate in the natural appeal of the "Garden Isle" known as Hawaii's Kauai, it amounts to a vacation event that's not only an experience, but something to recall for many years in the future.
What many tourists of Hawaii don't understand is that horses and cattle ranches have a long record in the Aloha State. The paniolo, or Hawaiian cowboy, is derived from the vaquero, or Hispanic cowboy hailing from California and Mexico. One quality of the Hawaiian language is that it doesn't incorporate an "s" sound, so espanol becomes paniolo in Hawaiian. Captain George Vancouver furnished Pai'ea Kamehameha, the leader of Hawaii, with cattle that by the early 1800s numbered so many that they were tearing up the flora. An English sailor who ran away from his ship, was permitted by the Hawaiian leader to bring together the cattle and establish the island's first cattle ranch in the early 1800s. In 1832, Mexican vaqueros were brought to the islands to show the local Polynesian people ways to manage cattle. A Hawaiian paniolo wears clothing reminiscent of the Hispanic vaguero that wandered Mexico and California in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The noho lio, or Hawaiian saddle, includes a distinguishing Spanish American look.
