쉬운 호놀룰루 카운티 하이킹 및 워킹 코스

Beautiful hiking trail, partly very muddy

It's really steep! Start early in the morning! You need to be sure-footed!

Fantastic panoramic views! You definitely need a head for heights and surefootedness! It's very steep! Be sure to do the hike early in the morning and only if it's dry, as the wooden planks can be slippery.

Wear good shoes!

Easy walk!

This is the highest point along the Makapu'u Point Trail — a superb vantage point for taking in views of Koko Head, Koko Crater, and offshore islets that serve as wildlife sanctuaries for Hawaiian seabirds. You can also see the red roof of the historic Makapu'u Lighthouse below you. The lighthouse itself was built back in 1909, and is unfortunately off-limits for visitors.

Measuring in at almost 500 acres, this state monument produces truly mind-blowing views out across the water and over Waikiki. Unless you are a Hawai'i resident with a Hawai'i ID, you must make reservations to enter the monument, for a small fee: https://gostateparks.hawaii.gov/diamondhead Diamond Head State Monument is only open from 6am-6pm, with the last hike starting at 4pm. Often, going earlier in the day means fewer crowds.

Easily Hawaii's most-recognized landmark, Lē'ahi, or Diamond Head, is the unmistakable profile you can see to the east from Waikiki. It got its name from Westerners who mistook the calcite crystals in the summit crater for diamonds. Lē'ahi is surrounded by almost 500 acres of Diamond Head State Monument, which is open only from 6am-6pm. If you are not a Hawai'i resident with Hawai'i ID, you must make advance reservations online before you visit; entry is $5 per person for non-residents, and $10 per vehicle if you are driving.
