Immerse yourself in Kohala on a small group adventure. Come into the heart of the Hawaiian countryside to a place of old sugar plantations, ancient legends and extraordinary natural beauty. Easy walks, gorgeous countryside views and a chance to cool off in a mountain stream make this the ideal family adventure in Hawaii.
Your Kohala Waterfalls Small Group Adventure Tour begins with a journey up the North Kona and Kohala coastlines over lava flows from Mauna Loa, Mauna Kea and the Kohala Mountains. Often from the shoreline you are able to see splashing spinner dolphins or in the winter months, breaching humpback whales. Pass through the quaint plantation towns of Hawi and Kapaau, site of the life-size statue of King Kamehameha I.
At the end of the road a brief rest stop at the historic Kohala Mule Station offers one of Hawaii's most spectacular coastal views. Then the real fun begins, with a bumpy but short four-wheel drive ride on an old cane road over private ranchland to the trailhead.
Getting out of the van, you'll step back into the early 1900's, when plantation owners began construction of the Kohala Ditch Trail. Along the 1.5 mile loop trail you'll see tunnels blasted and carved from solid rock, walk over an aqueduct and learn the story of the tremendous effort it took to build the 22 mile irrigation system. The hike is considered easy to moderate with several short, steep climbs. The total walking distance is up to 2 miles.
Seven beautiful waterfalls grace the trail and you can take a refreshing dip in the last pool visited and play under a refreshing cascade. With stunning mountain panoramas, green valleys and pasturelands, and of course the abundant water, the Kohala Waterfalls Adventure is a fascinating way for young and old to experience Kohala's "story of water."
