Hikers Price: $109.38 - with Goldcard $98.44
We hike down a private trail (we built it) from a 1,000-foot ridge to the valley below. We follow a stream past ancient stone-walled taro terraces to three waterfalls and pools. This is a deep, secluded valley with about 350 feet of elevation change each way -- which makes it a good aerobic workout. The three waterfalls are 10 to 20 feet high. For the adventuresome (and even the not-so-fit), climb down the roots of a huge banyan tree to a magical area where you stand at the tippy-top of a 35-foot falls. From that overlook you see nothing but rain forest canopy down down the valley to the ocean far away. Takes your breath away.
