The Hiking HI

Spreading the aloha one hike at a time!

Kamanaiki Ridge Trail

Little known ridge near Honolulu that leads to a pleasant lookout. And if you time it right you may even find some juicy guava!

NU'UANU JUDD TRAIL

This muddy hike has a bit of everything-- a bamboo forest, awesome valley views, and even a little waterfall. Don't forget your swimsuit!

KULI'OU'OU RIDGE TRAIL

Popular intermediate trail with beautiful Cooke pine forest and great windward views. A perfect intro to Oahu's great ridge hiking.

KULANA'AHANE TRAIL to H3 LOOKOUT

Trek deep into Moanalua Valley, crossing streams and dodging mud, before a steep ridge ascent to an epic lookout. Cameras required.

HANAUMA BAY RIM TRAIL and ROCK BRIDGE

Beautiful loop that gives a great perspective of Hanauma Bay, before descending into Koko Head to sea level to a natural rock bridge.

KALIHI ICE PONDS (NAOHIA FALLS)

This small waterfall and swimming hole is about as easy as it gets for waterfall hikes. The catch? It's not exactly allowed...

MOUNT OLYMPUS via KOLOWALU TRAIL

A quick burner that will get you to Ko'olau summit without too much drama. Catch it on a clear day and you will be happy you made the trek.

KOKO CRATER STAIRS

More of a workout than a hike, climb >1000 stairs to the summit of this volcanic crater. Make sure you warm up before this leg burner.
