Best Hiking Routes to Kalalau Trail

Tips

  • Although it's well-maintained, this trail is almost never level, and it can get slippery fast when wet. Keep an eye out for wild goats, many native plant species, and of course amazing views out over the water as you hike.

    Also, keep in mind that if you want to hike all the way to Kalalau Beach (or simply beyond Hanakapi'ai Valley), you need an overnight permit. Hanakapi'ai Beach is the usual turnaround point for day hikers.

  • A very nice walk along the coast. It goes up and down. Unfortunately, the path is very muddy and as soon as it gets wet very dirty.

  • The wild north. This is where the impressive Napali Coast begins.
