As I've been cleaning out my drafts I realized I never posted about our time hiking the Wiliwilinui Trail. We did this a few months back before Nic left and I have to say it's one of my favorites. It's a decent length. I loved the swing and views. A large portion of the hike are stairs, and I will fully admit my legs were beat after.
The hike is in a neighborhood right before you reach Hawaii Kai. Yelp gives decent directions to it. I would advise getting there relatively early, or later, or just going on the week. There are limited parking passes given at the gate shack to individuals doing the hike. As always, carpooling is a wonderful!
We'll be going back on this hike once Nic gets back and hopefully a time or two before then with some friends.
Wiliwilinui is probably one of my favorite east side hikes, the stairs at the end are a biznatch, but the view is my favorite at the end!
ReplyDeleteThose stairs kicked my butt! But I agree to the views. It's on my favorite list as well!
DeleteAh so many hikes to do and so little time to do them in!! I'll definitely be putting this one on the bucket list--the view looks so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely worth driving out there to do! You can go to Hanauma Bay and do some swimming after, or the Kona Brewery is just up the road from it! :)
