KAPALUA - West Maui Mountainside
Conveniently located on the slopes above the Kapalua Airport and just minutes away from Lahaina and Kaanapali Resorts, the Kapalua course offers 1400 acres of riding terrain with hairpin turns, tight lines through the jungle, and breathtaking view of the ocean and the islands of Lanai and Molokai in the distance. This land was once home to a pineapple farm but now it is being transformed back into a native Hawaiian forest. On each tour a stop is made to plant a koa tree ... a native Hawaiian hardwood that is valued for it strength and beauty. Tours offered DAILY at 9:00am, 12:00pm, and 3:00pm.

ACTIVITY TIPS
ATV's are a LOT of fun to drive! And just think! If you wear a WHITE t-shirt at the beginning of the tour, it will be a RED DIRT shirt by the end of the tour! The terrain here is often dry and dusty at the bottom of the course, and noticebly wetter and muddier as you get higher up on the mountain. Showers are more frequent at higher elevation. You might get dirty at the beginning of the tour, have all the dirt washed off by a shower during the middle of the tour, and then dirty again before the end of the tour. A towel to sit on ... or better yet a change of clothing before getting back into your rental car ... both are ways to avoid a cleaning fee when you get back to HERTZ/AVIS/DOLLAR/BUDGET/ENTERPRISE/ALAMO at the end of your vacation.
Maui Mountain Activities has the best location in terms of access from South and Central Maui and the cruise ship dock in Kahului. They primarily offer single-seat ATV's, but have now added a limited number of 2-seat side-by-side machines. You ride UP to an overlook into the heart of the West Maui Mountains, then head down a relatively steep mountain trail system all the way to the ocean. The spot where they stop for photos there is just drop-dea gorgeous with views of the rugged north shore of the West Maui Mountains that VERY few people who live on Maui have ever seen. On the way back UP the mountain there are a few places where they spread out the riders and let you "give it all you've got." Turning the riders loose is something that VERY few ATV tours in Hawaii ever do!
Maui Offroad Adventures does their tours in 4 seat Polaris RZR's. These machines are powerful and fast ... and also more stable ... than single seat ATV's. It is a good option for families and group and offers side-by-side seating in the front seat and in the back seat. Their West Maui location in Kapalua is really convenient for guests staying in Lahaina, Kaanapali, Kapalua, and other areas of West Maui. The trail system covers some interesting forested terrain and offers some wide-open landscape views of the Pacific Ocean and the islands of Lanai and Molokai across the channel.
