Pali Puka

Aloha everyone, this week I like to introduce Pali Puka

Difficulty: ★☆☆☆ 

Distance: a short hike 

Duration: 1-2hours


Elevation Gain: Steep

Address: The hike is near by the Pali lookout

We parked at Pali lookout and walked to the trail which was in the left side. There has a sign that we could know the entrance and we through a bamboo forest. You have to be carful when you go there because the ridge was narrow and very windy, it seems like you could easily fall down the ridge. Some part of ridge have a rope that could help us to go up.





This was end of the trail and we went to us left side, there has a short path that led us down to a platform of sorts.



Have a good spring break ~

The Dead Man's CatWalk

Aloha everyone, this week I like to introduce The Dead Mans CatWalk

 Difficulty: ★☆☆☆☆ 

Distance: a short hike 

Duration: 1-2hours

Elevation Gain: Walking

I went there in June,2015. It is illegal!!!! But me and my friend still decided to go to there for hiking.
This was not very hard, we just walked the road all the way up. However, there has a wired fence, so we went left side and to get through it. Moreover, we just keep going. When we reached on the top, there was no clear walk way to follow. Therefore, me and my friend needed to find a road to reach the place.  And the views were amazing on the top !!! We could see the bay.





Sad news: the government closed down this hiking trail already, they moved the platform which I stood on. 😖

Hanauma Bay Hike

Aloha everyone, this week I like to introduce Hanauma Bay Hike & Hidden Rock Bridge

 Difficulty: ★☆☆☆☆ 

Distance: a short hike 


Duration: 2-3 hours

Elevation Gain: Steep 

Recently, I have went there with my friends, we parked in Hanauma Bay parking for a $1 fee per car.
Even thought it is illegal, but there were numerous hikers and we started almost 10 o'clock

The start of the trail is located right next to the Hanauma Bay entrance by Bus Stop. You just have through the gate and go the way up. 
















There has many paths that you can take and we chose go a short distance which is directly reach the end. However, it was more slippery and dangerous. (The entrance is when you walk half way of the road and check your left side, you will see the path.)










You would see the different views of Hanauma Bay

(Worth it)









 The bridge is a little bit hard to find, because it is covered by grass when we went there, so if you see it is not path to go, you need to go down the rock to check it.











Luckily, I stood on the bridge. Last time, I did not stand on there because of wave.  ( I suggest you better to hike in morning at 6/7 because we started almost 10 o'clocka and it was very very hot when we returned!!! So, you should bring a lot of water) and if you choose to go there morning you could see the beautiful sunrise. 😝
