This hike was amazing! We only got to the second look out point due to the time of day. I recommend good hiking shoes the trail got really muddy at points. Took us about 2hrs to get to the second point. The trail is shaded most of the way so there was a great breeze. Coming down can be challenging once you hit the muddy spots. I would absolutely do this hike again I would like to go...

Oh so beautiful and peaceful. It amazes me how much fruit is grows along the river as well as an abundance of wildlife.

Great hike! There are 3 parts to this hike. 1st about a mile straight uphill to the telephone poles.

The hiking is great! Views of Hanalei Bay are incredible even when the weather is so-so. The lower part of the trail is always muddy and slippery; when the trail gets a little steeper, and it’s been raining, it gets pretty dicey if you don’t have the proper footwear or don’t consider yourself balanced.
