Added by Hike Maui

Duration: Full day (includes hotel pickup)Hike 4.5 miles into the heart of Maui's national parkThe "Seven Sacred Pools" and so much more

Take a guided tour to discover the secrets of Maui's ultimate waterfall wonderland- an area still described as "old Hawai‘i." This is a 4.5 mile hike through acres of towering bamboo and lush tropical rain forest, into the heart of Maui's national park. This area is sometimes called "The Seven Sacred Pools," but on this tour, you discover so much more. The waterfalls you'll find range from 45-foot, 200-foot, all the way to 400-foot. There will be lots of opportunities to swim in the pools and jump off of easy to tackle cliffs (optional).

To arrive at our hike, we'll travel along the famous "Road to Hana", a beautiful 2.5-hr. drive from central Maui.Lunch and snacks included.

Seven Sacred Pools

This hike departs from the Kpahulu Visitor Center and heads out along the Kuloa Trail. The trail will take you through a bamboo forest and past several pools and falls. Be sure to get there early as the later it gets in the day, the more crowded the pools get. Hike the route counter-clockwise and be aware of any potential rogue waves as you head near the ocean. Also keep in mind that you shoul...

Waimoku Falls via the Pipiwai Trail

Located in Haleakala National Park on Maui's southeastern coast, this trail is well maintained by the National Park Service and is quite popular with visitors. Like most popular hikes, it is advised you get there early and try to go on a weekday and in the offseason if possible. Entrance to the park is $15 which will get you a three-day pass, so if you plan on visiting Haleakala's summit, this ...

You will find solitude, unparalleled views of the crater, surreal high-altitude tropical rainforest, Maui, the Big Island in the distance and a sunrise that is impossible to describe. Note:...

Some have fresh water swimming holes you can hang out in. Sunrise her...
