Mauna Lahilahi — Attraction in Oʻahu

Fantastic hike with EPIC views! Definitely not for those afraid of heights. Only takes about 30 mins up and can go dip in the ocean at papaoneone beach if not too rough. Its also VERY hot since you're out on the west side so bring water and sunscreen - and maybe go earlier in the day.

The trail is very narrow closer to the top (it is a ridge).

Very exciting hike. Off the beaten road for sure

At the top there is just a concrete slab 12 inches x 20 inches where it looks like a flag pole can...
