Piiholo Ranch Zipline

Our business began as the dream of founder Peter Baldwin. His family’s been in Maui for generations, and he wanted to do something special with their horseback riding and cattle venture. As a lover of the great outdoors, Peter wanted to share the breathtaking scenery of our home with as many people as possible. Enter Pi’iholo Ranch Zipline in 2008. Since we opened, we’ve worked hard to become one of the premier zipline attractions in the country, welcoming people from all over the world. If you’re looking for an adventurous way to appreciate the island, we hope you’ll join us for an exhilarating experience unlike any other. Mahalo!
