Hiking Manoa Falls

October 24, 2008 by TrailsTV 

O’ahu has a ton of great hikes. We did the Manoa Falls hike which was easy to get to and relatively short and flat hike at the base of the Ko’oaus Mountains. A few things before you go, you are hiking in a rainforest, it’s wet, wet and dirt means mud. Take an extra pair of shoes. The parking lot at the bottom of the entrance had a small bucket to wash off the mud, but, it’s always a great idea to be prepared. The path is both muddy and slippery due to the moisture. The waterfall is breath taking and is easily 150 feet free fall to a small pond. The foliage is incredible! The hike is quick eand the waterfall is absolutely beautiful…

    Great video!

    Brings back the memories of all the hikes I did on Kaua’i back in the 1990s.

    I’m hoping to get to the islands this winter, probably in February.

    Keep up the good work.

When entering the backcountry, proper precautions should be taken, including your health and fitness levels, avalanche beacon and the know-how to use it, shovel, compass, friend, weather information, and common sense.
