Oahu, Hawaii
Maunawili Falls Trail
December 23, 2003
An easy to moderate trail about 1 ½ miles through forest and several small stream crossings. The final destination is a small waterfall flowing into a deep, natural pool. |
The trail begins here and winds upward along a path embedded with wooden railroad ties which serve as stairs. |
A sign along the side of Maunawili Road points in the direction of the trailhead. The trailhead begins at the end of Maunawili Road just past a gate which is blocked to traffic. |
The path is muddy in many places, although the stream crossings are fairly easy due to some rocks that have been laid across the stream beds. I managed to stay fairly dry by balancing my way across. |
The stairways are fairly short, and not strenuous. |
Final Destination -- Maunawili Falls That's me diving off the edge---> |
Directions: |
From Waikiki: Travel west on H-1 and take the Pali exit. Take the Pali Highway over the mountains and turn right onto `Auloa Road a short distance past the Kamehameha Hwy. At the fork in the road on `Auloa Road stay to the left, which is Maunawili Road. Stay on this road until it ends and look for a locked gate. A small sign just beyond the gate on the right marks the trailhead. |
