Hawaii Loa Trail

Return to Homepage


This is an intermediate trail which starts at a park on the north end of the Hawaii Loa subdivision (midway between Kahala and Hawaii Kai).  You must go through security and get a pass before entering the subdivision. In order to get a pass you must have a valid Hawaii driver's license.  There is plenty of good parking in a small park at the top of the subdivision. The trail starts on a ridge at about 1000 feet and then follows the ups and downs of the ridge to the summit.  The last 1/2 mile is the most strenuous.  The hiking time is 3 1/2- 4 hours.

Estimated burn: 1000 calories

There is one geocache located on the trail:   Hawaii Loa Ridge Plastic Cache.  (N 21 19.456 W 157 44.503).
