This was an amazing experience, particularly the descent from the 2nd peak - Paku'i - and the ascent to the third - Ahiki. I was lucky I met a couple of hikers at the start, one of whom had covered part of the trail before. Boy was I glad I did not brave it alone! The ropes tied to rocks... More

Short, steep and lush vegetation. Enjoyed this hike a lot but didn't do the very end, because of the climbing section which I found too scary without any security equipment. It is a no go, when wet, too dangerous.

So glad we found this hike! Totally agree with the other reviewers - "challenging and rewarding" - just bring your water, some snacks, and your camera. Five of us hiked - ages: 18- 51 - everyone did great. We're not expert hikers by any stretch of the imagination, but we were careful and loved the experience. Two members of our... More

Olomana Three Peaks Trail is a challenging and rewarding. The views are breathtaking in 360 degrees. Sometimes you are actually above the clouds. On the last hiks my son took an incredible picture of a 360 degree rainbow.

While this isn't the hardest hike you'll ever do, it's certainly not for the faint of heart. We only did the first peak and that was enough for us even though we are active physically fit people. The hike starts out easy, but once you get into the steeper rooty sections is when it gets harder. If you have any... More

Loved this hike- do it during the drier part of the year though (like May-Sept) so you have less chance of getting hurt. It is a truly amazing hike, even if you just go to the first peak as I have (too many people have been hurt or died on the other peaks)

This hike is so much fun-it can be grueling if you're not used to hikes with elevation changes. This 6 mile round-trip hike has 1600 feet of elevation change. Park near the Olomana Country Club in Kailua. You could do the much shorter version of the hike and just do the first peak. This part of the trail affords the... More
