La’ie
Little has changed since HTMC first hiked this lengthy contour trail on October 6, 1935. The lower portion is still a hot, dusty jeep road, and the upper portion is a cool native forest. Midway along, a short detour to a delightful waterfall pool is an option.
A $5 donation is requested for each non-member, age 18 or over.
Hawaii Reserves hiking permit required (see below for details).
