Hāmākua Forest Reserve Jeep road navigates its way through very dense forest. The trail itself is pretty bumpy with a leaf floor, similar to a Pacific Northwest trail in the fall. A mountain bike or something with some 26x2.2+ tires would be ideal. This trail is best left to dry conditions due to the mud that can form.

Old Mamalahoa Hwy is a paved scenic road that navigates through Hawaiian jungle and open fields. Throughout the ride you can catch glimpses of the pacific through the trees. If you continue along Old Mamalahoa Hwy, you'll eventually find yourself passing a cafe where they sell smoothies, bagels, and other snacks.

There is a large farmers market here open sundays 9am to 2pm. There is a nice mix of local foods, produce, and hard goods! For those ballin' on a budget, this market accepts SNAP and EBT.

There is a spot on the main road where you can star down the valley and see the Nanue Falls. The top of the cliff is about 1600 feet above sea level, 1,200-feet tall, and is ranked number 282 out of 1,000 for the worlds tallest waterfall.

This point offers an unforgettable view from the Pololū Valley Overlook. The steep cliffs, green forests, and black sand beaches is truely an amazing sight. The best time to be here is a little before sunset so that you can experience both the sunset view and daylight view.

This secluded cape was home to a long-standing lighthouse that was built in 1933. The lighthouse replaces an earlier wood lighthouse from the 1800's. Unfortunately the lighthouse was demolised recently and replaced with a metal marker to signify it's history.
