The tremendous rainfall has produced the most remarkable sheer valleys, razor sharp ridges descending to the sea and most amazing array of waterfalls to be assembled anywhere in the world.

Helpful Tips from Tom Barefoot - Hiking in Kauai:

• Here’s a tip I’m sure you’ll appreciate. Go take a Hike! The splendor of Kauai is in its abundant natural surrounding. No activity says “Nature” more than hiking. Being in nature is of course, our natural state. Its where we came from; its our roots. Nothing sooths the soul in quite the same way as a hike in the woods, a walk along the coast or through a path in the jungle. Kauai has it all, and essentially has it for everybody. You can hike the rugged 8 mile or so Kalalau Trail to the Hanakapiai Valley with its spectacular 300-foot waterfall or you can take an easy stroll suitable for all ages to the Limahuli Valley and Gardens and see the Pacific Botanical Tropical Garden of Lawai. Kauai has many hiking treasures, and we can arrange one that will be just perfect for you.
