Descend from the heavens of the summit to the lush realm of Kīpahulu District. Trek through the dense rainforest and get lost amidst the melodic chirps of endemic Hawaiian birds.

Feel the refreshing spray on your face and the thundering sound of cascading waters echo through the valley, a sensory treat unlike any other.

For those fascinated by history and culture, the park offers an intimate look into the lives of the island's early inhabitants.
