I’ll start by saying I am a novice hiker and also this was my first time in Oahu. When we first arrived arrived to the trail area was very confusing. Lots of signs that indicate private property and No clear signs of where to park and you can barely see where the beginning of the trail is. The sign for trail did say that you need a permit which is free if you visit Hawaii reserves inc. 5 minute drive from the trail and is not really enforced so I don’t know why they required it. They also give you a “map” which is kind of vague. You have to park at a school field on the neighborhood and walk towards the trail. The map says is 3 miles. However, is more like 6.5 miles each way. There is basically no signage and the private property owners to get to the trail do have big dogs running around free so be aware of that. Once you get on the trail the views are amazing one of a kind. Different terrains, lots of hills, a lot of isolation the views of the mountains and valleys and the natural tunnels the trees make are wonderful. As you go up the hike is challenging but rewarding. We almost gave up when we ran into certain obstacles and thought we had taken the wrong path but we finally saw 2 other hikers and they told us to keep going. Once you get to the area near the falls the path gets really narrow and going down to the falls there is rope and trees to help with a very slippery and narrow descend. The waterfalls are a big pay off. There wasn’t anyone around so you really get to enjoy it and take it all in. The way down is easier and it took us about 5.5 hours to do the entire hike. Overall is an amazing experience but I do wish there was more signs to indicate you are going the right way since is a tough hike. So take water and very comfortable shoes and enjoy the adventure.
