Overview
Moderate:
4.5 miles, 1-3 hours
Overview:
This 4.5 mile round-trip hike in West Maui Forest Reserve promises lush scenery, great valley views and some dramatic ridge-line hiking.
As on the windward side of all Hawaiian islands, you're more likely to be in for wet weather and muddy conditions. But it's not all that bad, since this means waterfalls are plentiful, the vegetation is greener and the cooler conditions make for a nice comfortable hike.
Elevation gain:
• 1,560ft (from 1,000 – 2,560ft)
Tips:
• As with all Hawaii hikes we recommend footwear with good grip, since the terrain can get a little slippy & muddy.
