Laie Falls Trail

Reviewed By petao2015

This tops the 4 hikes we've done across the islands. A proper hike! Permit easily got from Hawaii reserves Inc at laie shops. At a decent pace, but slowing for the final muddy section, took 1.5hrs to reach the falls. Hiking shoes made it easy going, it gets very muddy for last mile. A guy passed going down wearing toe shoes- seemed a good alternative. Loved the varied landscapes and ecosystems the trail passes, and the view back to the ocean before you descend to the falls. About 1 hr 10 to get down. So peaceful at falls, up in clouds. Stunning.

Hukilau Beach

Reviewed By CLC48 - Salt Lake City, United States

We love this spot! There is some parking, but it’s limited. The water can be a bit rough particularly on a windy day. Still, it’s a gorgeous view and the beach parking is right off the road. Very accessible. The beach itself is a short distance away around a few grassy dunes. The beach is perhaps a quarter mile from the La’ie shopping plaza—a strip mall with a good Foodland grocery store and some food shops.

Ma'akua Ridge Trail

Reviewed By rkoehl - West Chester, United States

We were planning on hiking Diamond Head but found this trail closer to where we were staying and it was well worth the find! The views from the top are amazing! You have to park in front of the Hawaii transportation department or by the ocean at the bottom of the road and walk about a half mile up to where the road is closed off by a gate. Make sure not to keep any valuables in your car as this is a higher crime area (although we had no issues the 5 days we were in the area). Go past the gate and walk up the paved road, you first pass the Hauula Loop Trail and past the amazing graffiti wall is the entrance on the left. The trail is about 4 miles long and moderate in intensity. The path is marked fairly well with pink ribbons. You do have to climb over rocks, roots and stream beds. Some of the step ups and downs can be a little steep. It was dry the day we went but if the ground is wet or it starts to rain could see that things would get slippery. Majority is under cover so while warm, there is a good breeze and no blazing sun. Make sure to wear bug spray! We were definitely glad we didn't make the drive to Diamond Head to hike in the sun with tons of other people. Would not recommend with young children.
