Hike to
Waimoku Falls (Pipiwai Trail), Maui, Hawaii
View Original Description
The hike along the Pipiwai Trail to Waimoku Falls has an elevation gain of 900ft (from 200 - 1,200ft). The hike is at the end of the Hana Highway next to the Seven Sacred Pools (ʻOheʻo Pools).
The 4 mile round trip to the falls and back goes past several great waterfalls and a dense, dark bamboo forest before reaching the spectacular Waimoku Falls.
Make sure to get on the Hana Hawaii early start in order to do the drive and this hike. It does end up being a very long day combining the two. Also make sure to bring good shoes that can get muddy and wet.
It's at Hana Hwy (Hana to Kipahulu) Mile Marker 42.
WARNING: The hike route is prone to flash flooding, so be aware of the weather forecast and do not attempt the hike under threat of rain.
