About this tour
Discover hidden waterfalls, lush valleys, and ancient Hawaiian sites on this full-day guided adventure through a private nature reserve in North Kohala. Hawaii Forest & Trail's signature waterfall tour takes you off-road to an exclusive trailhead where few visitors ever set foot, then leads you on a relaxed one-mile walk through a verdant landscape to swim beneath cascading waterfalls in cool mountain pools.
The 6 to 7-hour excursion includes an off-road drive along the rugged Kohala coast, a guided walk through a restored ancient Hawaiian agricultural site, and a private picnic lunch at one of the island's most spectacular scenic lookouts - with views of soaring sea cliffs and remote valleys dropping to the ocean below.
All gear is provided: trekking poles, day packs, raingear, bug repellent, sunscreen, and towels. A deli-style lunch with snacks and assorted beverages is served at the lookout. Bring comfortable closed-toe shoes, swimwear, and a reusable water bottle. The hike covers about 200 feet of elevation gain on natural terrain and is rated easy - suitable for all ages and fitness levels.
Small groups of up to 10 guests ensure a personalized experience. Convenient pickup is available from multiple Kohala Coast locations including Four Seasons Resort Hualālai, Queens' Marketplace, and The Shops at Mauna Lani, or meet directly at the Hawaii Forest & Trail office in Kailua-Kona. Child safety seats and carriers are available upon request.
