Description
Added by Rosabell Janec
Historical and beautiful hike(s) on West Maui!
Although my family and I weren't able to hit all of the gorgeous hikes available, this was still a memorable adventure! The view is gorgeous and the trail to the Iao Needle is short, beautiful, and easy for all to do!

Hike through Iao Valley to Kūkaemoku (The Needle)
This is a very simple hike for people of all ages, and a great way to see the beautiful Maui rainforest. It is one of the more popular hikes on the island of Maui due to its short length and high accessibility. Kūkaemoku (known as The Needle), which is the pointy rock formation as shown in the photos, is best observed from this short hike. Start at the parking lot and follow the trail over a fe...

If you are traveling with one car, make sure to come back down the same way from the crest. If you have another car with you, alternatively, you can park one at the east side and one at the west. The east side is really tough on the legs and is eroding quite a bit, however, s...
Kaanapali Beach
Kaanapali Beach is about a 45-minute drive from Kahului Airport, and only two miles from Lahaina.

Getting to the Nakalele Blowhole is not too difficult. Use the Google Maps location on here to drive to the spot listed. There will be a dirt parking lot.Warning: If you are coming from Kahului, do not take the Kahekili Highway (Hwy 340) unless you are prepared for hairpin turns, one lane roads, and a dangerous drive. It is much easier and safer to take Honoapiilani Highway (Hwy 30) through Lah...
Exploring the Road to Hana
Start near Paia on Highway 36 and head east. The road is famous for its many twists and turns, so consider taking lots of breaks to get some fresh air and avoid getting car sick. There are many stops along the way, from ice cream to medium length hikes.
Some of the Best Stops:
Coconut Glen's: the best coconut milk ice cream you will ever have. Glen serves up healthy, tasty ice cream from his ...
