Kalōpā State Recreation Area is a state park near Honokaa on the Hamakua Coast, set in upland native ʻōhiʻa forest. An easy family nature trail loops through the forest and passes the beginnings of an arboretum of the island's native plants. More trails, including a horse loop trail, run through the adjoining forest reserve. Day use is open daily and there is no entrance fee, but camping and the cabins are closed. The park page says the cabins stay closed through the end of the year. The nature trail area has a restroom, picnic tables and a water fountain. State Parks asks visitors to help slow Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death: clean your shoes, gear and clothes before and after entering the forest, and do not move ʻōhiʻa wood or parts. Pets, bicycles, alcohol and smoking are not allowed.
Camping and cabins closed; day use open. Clean shoes and gear before and after your walk to help slow Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death.
