Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Waihee Canyon, North of Walluku on 340, Maui, HI 96793

Enjoy the sweet smell of yellow and white ginger flowers as we hike through a lush forest in the West Maui Mountains that is easy to miss. Part of this adventure is the road less traveled, and at times, the entire journey feels that way.

Initially hike through bamboo thickets to a dirt trail that weaves in and out of a lava rock stream (involves rock hopping) to an upper tier waterfall and pool for swimming. Along the way, we'll point out old native ruins, native species, such as Awapuhi ginger (seasonal) for conditioning the skin and hair right there! And Banyan trees, originally from India, with aerial roots that leave us in awe of nature. After feeling refreshed from our first swim, we'll return to the original point of entry and begin our decent to the next phase of this journey. 

The 2nd phase involves hiking through giant basalt formations, while descending down to a lower tier waterfalls to explore and swim in the freshwater pools. The first tier has a natural waterfall slide that gushes into the pool, which is great for kids. Or if you prefer jumping into the pool, go for it! We'll then hike further down the rocky stream to an incredible banyan tree with giant routes for climbing down to a larger more secluded, 2nd tier waterfall and pool, with the option of climbing into the fall. Epic! From here, we stand above an even larger and steep 3rd tier waterfall, for viewing, that gushes toward the ocean.

Duration: 4 hours
