Awa'awapuhi Hike | Koke'e
Duration
5 hours
Overview
-
A day of magnificent hiking!
Off the Koke’e Road, the trail starts at approximately at 4,120 feet and ends at a lookout around 2,500 feet, that boasts spectacular views into the lusciously green sheer palis (cliffs), fluted ridges and spires of the valleys of Awa`awapuhi and Nu`alolo, both overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the famous Na Pali Coast.
The grassy terminus of this trail offers a nice and picturesque grassy area suitable for a picnic and respite.
To gain those views you will have gradually descended from the edge of a rainforest through the Na Pali-Kona Forest Reserve; a wilderness rich with a variety of native dry land plants species.
It is more or less a 3.1 mile one way trail that slopes down through a “dry land” forest with many examples of native and exotic plants and trees complemented with sightings of native birds such as the precocious elepaio
