Destination Waterfalls

The tour begins with a drive of contrast and change from sunny Mauna Lani to the lush green country of North Kohala. Along the way, you’ll journey up the Kohala coastlines over lava flows from Mauna Loa, Mauna Kea, and the Kohala Mountains. After a short stretch of off-road driving, you'll make it to the historic Kohala Ditch Trail, once used to bring much-needed water to the sugar cane fields in the early 1900's. Along the 1.5-mile loop, you’ll see tunnels blasted and carved from solid rock, walk over two watercourse construction bridges, and learn the story of the tremendous effort it took to build an irrigation system stretching over 22 miles. As we hike, seven stunning waterfalls show off their natural beauty. When we make it to the last, you'll have time to swim in the pool and play under the cascade of refreshing water. From stunning mountain panoramas and green valleys to pasturelands and majestic waterfalls, the Kohala Waterfalls adventure is a unique way for all ages to experience Kohala’s “story of water.”
