Owner Ray Fuqua is a 25 year Maui resident and naturalist who started Oheo Stables in Hana 14 years ago and moved the business to Lahaina in 2004 (becoming Lahaina Stables), with the idea of sharing Mauis secluded natural beauty, local history and folklore with select small groups of riders and like minded folks. A former high school history teacher, his passion for Hawaiian history and culture almost overshadows the natural beauty of this horseback adventure. Lahaina Stables is the only company offering trailrides to Kauaula Valley and Launiupoko Valley. Here you will find incredible views of West Maui you will not see any other way but on horseback. Rays well trained horses and fun, knowledgeable guides make this trip a must for all nature lovers. Leana was born and raised in the Rocky Mountain region of Colorado. She has spent her life living and breathing horss. From the time of her first pony, Laena has participated in a variety of equestrian disciplines including Pony Club, three day eventing, polocrosse, western equitation and show jumping. In 1998, Laena qualified for a spot on the Zone 8 Junior Olympic Show Jumping Team. After five days of intense competition, Laena and her horse Akula finished eleventh out of nearly eighty of the best young riders and horses. Having a lifetime of horse experience has provided a depth of knowledge and understanding concerning the training and daily care of horses. Laena enjoys the thrill of jumping a technical corse of five foot obstacles as well as relaxing with her horse and dog on a senic trail ride. A resident of Maui since 2004, Laena discovered a mystery and beauty unlike any other place she has been before. She spent many a day learning about Maui and its neighboring islands. Laena has a knack for absorbing information and can share her already vast knowledge of Maui at the drop of a hat. The only thing she enjoys talking about more is horses.
