Huaka‘i Iki – The Little Hiking Adventure

• A Walk Deep into Paradise

  Hike the rugged rainforest paths of one of the most sacred places in Hawai‘i, on a “little adventure” with a big impact.
  
  On this adventure you will…
  
  

  • Arrange for transportation to the North Shore Marketplace, located at 66-250 Kamehameha Highway in Haleiwa town. Look for the off-road vehicle near the Aloha General Store.
  • Check in at the North Shore Marketplace. Please report to the Haleiwa pick-up site no later than 8:50 AM, 10 minutes before the tour's start.
  • Meet your expert guide for a 7-mile off-road ride to the trailhead.
  • Begin your hike through unspoiled natural beauty rarely seen by O'ahu visitors. Scale wind-swept ridges, forge freshwater streams and trek through verdant tropical valleys. Observe scented gingers and other spectacular rainforest plants, such as guava, scented ginger and bamboo thickets. Revel in Hawai‘i's fascinating history, culture and ancient mythology.
  • Swim in a private mountain pool, and enjoy a gourmet lunch amongst the flora and fauna.

  
  For our hiking tours, we serve light and refreshing lunches that are eaten on the trail. They feature Vietnamese style summer rolls—cold wraps in rice paper with rice noodles, lettuce and veggies—with a choice of either chicken, shrimp or tofu.
