Mana Road Traditional or E-Mountain Bike Tour

Ride more than 20 miles of backcountry terrain on Mana Road — a historic paniolo (Hawaiian cowboy) cattle route that winds through the foothills of Mauna Kea above Waimea. This 3.5-hour guided tour starts at Anna Ranch and climbs gently into rolling green pastureland, remote countryside, and sweeping ridgelines with views stretching from the summit of Mauna Kea to the Kohala Coast far below.

The route mixes scenic cruising with flowy descents on a mix of gravel and backcountry roads. Specialized Turbo electric mountain bikes handle the climbing so you can focus on the views, though experienced riders can opt for a traditional or gravel bike if they prefer the workout. Your guide sets the pace for the group and keeps the ride fun for all skill levels.

The tour includes your bike, helmet, rain gear, and a ride snack. Waimea weather can be windy and rainy, but the tour runs in most conditions — dress in layers and expect the unexpected. Meet at Anna Ranch in Waimea before the ride.
