Aug 17, 2009 : Kauai : Nu'alolo and Awa'awapuhi Trails
On Monday we headed to the west shore, to Waimea Canyon. The views of the gorge from all of the lookout stops were spectacular. We went to the Koke’e Museum to ask about trail conditions. We decided to hike the 11 mile Nu’alolo Trail/ Nu’alolo Cliffs/Awa-‘awapuhi Grand Loop. Our guidebook said: “This is a great hike! It takes most of a day and is strenuous, but you’re treated to views that will stay frozen in your mind for a lifetime.” The guidebook was right! We were treated to incredible views of the Na Pali coast (that we would kayak the next day). We saw beautiful birds and black Hawaiian mountain goats, and we heard feral pigs. On the way home, we had our first taste of rainbow shave ice … with macadamia nut ice cream. Awesome!
