My favorite place in the world, the north shore of Kaua'i. I don't think another spot on Earth will ever take the place of this pacific island and this trail is one of the reasons. It is the most beautiful view you will ever see and some of the most fun hiking you will ever have. We have gone as far as the waterfall (about 6 miles in) and that is my favorite hike out of any other I have done. It wasn't too strenuous but crossing the river can be tricky in spots (which also adds to the fun). The falls are very tall and refreshing, it is so peaceful and rejuvenating. I was careful on the way in but ran out! Next time I am going to bypass the inland waterfall and head straight for Kalalau beach paradise. Just counting the days!

Make sure to wear shoes, keep a slow constant pace (don't stop), and bring water. I did this hike 9 times so far and it gets easier and easier. This hike to me is harder than stairway to heaven, but it's just as rewarding :)

This hike was muddy when I went. Well it was raining haha. Here's my advice: wear athletic shoes or any footwear that you don't mind getting muddy!! I wore vans (stupid me) because I came from alamoana. my shoes kind of got ruined. Also bring water and a small towel to wipe off mud (came in handy). This hike is really short, easy, and good for families :) & the waterfall is breathtaking!! My friend & I stayed for at least an hour taking pictures.

I finally did this hike :) this hike is good for all ages and athletic abilities. It's easy & the view is amazing!! Even though it's easy, make sure to stay hydrated!! Bring water :) the pavement inclines & there is a tunnel that you have to walk through & a couple of sets of stairs. You got this!! As long as you go at your own pace, it'll be all good :)

Easy hike (: I recommend doing it!! Even though it's easy, remember to bring water! It has a slight incline (hills) toward the end. You basically walk on a road the whole time, so you won't get lost as long as you stay on the road. The waterfall is beautiful at the end!! It's not deep enough to swim in, but you can stand in the waterfall to cool off (: this hike is definitely good for families!

Hiked it with my 15 and 4 yo boys today. Short loop trail. Narrow in a lot of spots. View of Kaneohe Bay is pretty neat.

Was more of a "walk" with a little offside hiking. But very gorgeous. Roosters and peacocks greet u in the parking lot. It's $10 to get in for adult military, but I say spend it. It's a large tropical garden with lots of information about the history of islands. And the swimming at the end was refreshing. It is crowded, but mostly with kids. You gave to wear a life jacket to swim, and you can't climb or really explore the falls. But I had a great time. Bring sneakers if u want to do the side trails, otherwise flip flops are fine on the pavement

I'm hiking my way around Oahu while I stay here this summer, and this hike has been my favorite so far! Parking was tricky because the driving directions from the app did not take us to the right place, but after an online search, we found it. We only went to the first peak, because we got a late start, but we'll definitely return to conquer the other two.

Loved this trail! I did it with my husband and we really enjoyed our hike. You go from forest, to dry grassy, to bamboo, to climbing over a couple rocks/boulders and jungle-ish. Beautiful view of the mountains around the H3. Can't wait to do it again. Bring a light snack, at least 1.5 liters of water and your camera.

Love the Kalalau! The hike to the waterfall is fun and definitely a must-do. Nature at her most beautiful. You have one of the most stunning sunsets waiting on Ke'e beach at the end which will surely be worth the long hike. Not to strenuous but be prepared to jump rocks, crossing the river a couple times and it is the jungle so you will be muddy and messy at the end.
