Akaka Falls State Park Description[edit]

Akaka Falls State Park is located on the northeastern part of the Big Island in Hawaii. It is an official state park and features an 11-mile-long trail. The park's 442-foot waterfall can be detected from various viewpoints along the trail. An overlook above the waterfalls spans above, making it a scenic viewpoint. The path is covered in luscious vegetation and has various viewpoints from which you can also see Kahuna Falls. Hiking through the path is considered a heavy physical activity but features some wheelchair-accessible points.

Route[edit]

The trail is located near a parking lot that features amenities such as bathrooms and trash cans. The route is paved and has some steps. However, the waterfall view is nearby and a short distance from the viewpoint.
