Trek deep into the lush landscapes of the Na Pali Coast on a full-day adventure that takes you to locations only accessible on foot. Stand on a narrow ridge overlooking the dramatic coastline, peer down into the depths of the grand Warmea Canyon, and learn about the historical and cultural significance of these jaw-dropping landscapes.

Meet your guide in Koloa and hop in a comfortable vehicle for the ride out to the trailhead, passing into the rain shadow of the leeward side of the island as you cruise past farmland and agricultural towns like Hanapepe and Waimea. Traverse the centre of the island, winding your way along the rim of the Waimea Canyon to reach the North Shore. From 4,000 feet (1,220 m) above sea level, stop to look down at the rugged, rose-hued canyon walls and the tumbling cascade of Waipo'o Falls.

Absorb the serenity and the high-elevation ambiance in the cool mountain air, and then start your hike. Clamber along a sky-high ridge in Koke'e State Park, ascending high above the ocean. Reach a viewpoint that lets you look out over a breathtaking stretch of the 17-mile-long (27-km) Na Pali Coast, with its untouched beaches, emerald cliffs, and furrowed valleys, before making your muddy way back to the trailhead.
