Hau'ula Loop Trail Hike

Last Wednesday, Allison and I hiked the Hau'ula Loop Trail, one of our family's favorite short hikes. Here are some pictures from the hike. This first picture is in the middle of the deep, dark forest part of the trail.


Beautiful trees in the deep, dark forest.



This is one of the few places on the Hau'ula Loop trail that opens up and gives a view. Most of the trail is in the woods, with a somewhat mysterious feel.




Tree roots like these are typical on Hawaii mountain trails.




Thickets of trees are common on the way down the trail. When they are in season, this would be a great place to pick orange lilikoi (passion fruit). Unfortunately, we didn't see any on this day.

I think this is one of my favorite hikes. Though short, it is so diverse and interesting.
