Bike Vacations Show a Different Side of Maui
Sunday, December 5th, 2010Hawaii conjures up images of sandy beaches, warm ocean waters, and balmy romantic nights. That’s the island paradise image that has become the hallmark of the islands over the years. The reality is that a number of the islands, Maui especially, are actually tropical playgrounds – offering active vacation options for those to whom relaxation involves exploration and exertion more than restful passivity.
A growing number of people heading to Maui want to discover the islands in a more personal and up close way. Instead of secluding themselves on beaches and resort grounds, they are looking into camping, hiking, and road bike rentals maui . In fact, some are using bikes as their main form of transportation, using a campground or hotel as a home base and then exploring the surrounding area by bicycle.
Road and mountain bikes can go places that cars can’t and at a faster speed than hiking with less physical exhaustion than on foot. The views and trails accessible by bike are different than offered by a car or even an ATV. Imagine biking a winding trail through a forest reserve or to the summit of a mountain to get an idea of how climbing on a bicycle can provide a whole different view of Maui.
