Waihe`e or Hamana Falls

(we're not sure which)

my favorite waterfall hike on the island.



It's beautiful, simple, and refreshing. Make a left turn after the Hygienic Store onto Waihee Dr. and park at the end of the road.  The trail is paved, but has many steep hills towards the end.  Halfway there, you will find a pool to the left of the trail by the stream.  This is where my friends learned how to make "face bubbles"? You need to see the visual reenactment.

Once you get to the falls, simply lounge to the side or stand underneath the cascading spring water. It hurts just a little, but definitely worth it.
