Agree with the reviews on here. You’ll get some scenic viewpoints of the harbor and the bay from parts of the hike. It was a fairly easy hike and im sure kids 10 and up will have a blast doing it. Took about 1.5hours to complete. Undure about the elevation gain and distance. Make sure to bring lots of water. Most of the trail is shady and breezy. But the humidity will still get you. It is slippery at some points and parts of the trail are overgrown or blocked by fallen trees. Best view of the trail was getting off right before the end, next to a big green tank. Even got to see the elusive and alien looking “coconut crab” Walking down to the memorial of the Navy P3 orion crash that also took out the tram. Up on the hill is a little fale. In my opinion the best panoramic views of Utulei/Fagatogo/PagoPago. Its a point to point trail so you will have to walk on the road sidewalks to get back to the trailhead parking. Id guess its about 1/4 mile back to your car....

The remains of the aerial tramway are near the end...

After about 1.5 miles it was tough and alot of climbing. We didn't see too many scenic views near the top though, most of the top area was overgrown and...
