Pipiwai Trail

Trip Stop: 
Narrative: 

5.3-mile, with 820-feet elevation gain, out-and-back hike in the Kipahulu District of Haleakala National Park. The trail took us past Makahiku Falls lookout, to a 100-year-old, 60-foot in diameter banyan tree, through a bamboo forest, and up steps and across bridges to the end of the trail, where there was a view of 400-foot tall Waimoku Falls, cascading over a sheer lava wall. It is one of the tallest waterfalls in Maui.
