A fantastic tour through a wonderful botanical garden. Hiking boots and, if necessary, hiking poles are very helpful. If it has rained in the previous days, you'll be walking through muddy terrain. Plan on two hours each way.

Not a trail for beginners. Sturdy shoes are necessary. But they don't have to be alpine hiking boots. Trail running shoes are recommended - not waterproof ones, but ones that dry quickly and have a good, non-slip sole.

Unfortunately, everything was covered in fog when we visited. But the view must be great. We were there around lunchtime. Earlier would have been better.

If you were disappointed by not getting to see Waipo'o Falls head-on, this much smaller waterfall is a nice consolation prize. It's just a short distance from the main waterfall. Watch your footing in bad weather; this trail can get slippery, fast.

Hikers are sometimes surprised to see the trail ends at the top of 800-foot Waipo'o Falls, as opposed to approaching it head-on for the best views. It's still a breathtaking view, though. Take care if you try to get near the edge, as that's quite a drop. Coming early increases your odds of having clear skies, and (somewhat) avoiding the crowds on this popular trail.

This is one of the best possible viewpoints into the rugged beauty of Waimea Canyon, sometimes known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. On a clear day you can see far out across the Pacific Ocean, too, but even a clear morning can easily turn rainy or foggy by the afternoon.
