The Northern four miles are spectacular. The southern portion is more urban. To complete the southern portion, you need to leave the nice path and ride on a small dirt trail. Otherwise, the trail is about 5 1/2 miles paved.
I only gave it four stars because of the short length.
My wife and I rented bikes downtown and rode the entire length of the path, making stops along the way. It was a perfect morning on the island, which we enjoyed as part of our cruise.
One of the highlights of our trip! I started at Kauai Shores Hotel and went to the end of the path at Paliku Beach (Donkey Beach). I was afraid the disconnected part of the path from Sheraton Coconut Beach Resort to Fujii Beach would be difficult to navigate and have us riding on Kuhio Highway but luckily that's not the case. Bike paths have been added that don't show up on Google Maps. Look at the photo gallery to see a detail from a map from Kauai Bike Explorer to see how to navigate the disconnected part of the path. When I rode the trail in August 2023 it went a little past the Paliku Beach Access Tree Tunnel. It took about two hours round trip from Kauai Shores Hotel. It was pretty much flat the whole way and an easy, leisurely ride. It's a beautiful, unique trail and I can't wait to see it expand.
This is my favorite Oahu hike. The ocean and tide pools are amazing and your walking right along the mountainside. We hiked from Ka’ena State Park and went all the way out to the western-most point of Oahu. Free, ample parking is available in the park at the end of the road. Lock you car. Closed toe shoes are a must as the trail is rocky. Bring plenty of water as it is a hot, dry hike. The trail is 99% flat with one up-and-around that is a bit challenging (see photo).
I’m seeing a lot of reviews about the houseless community on the trails. To the folks leaving those reviews, are you doing anything to help?
I enjoy riding this trail w the 9 year old that I mentor. Beautiful views of the harbor, cool neighborhoods, old farms, houseless communities… golf courses (the irony). I’ve never once felt anymore unsafe then anywhere else in Pearl City.
Highly recommend for a unpolished representation of this beautiful place that we get to live.
A nice safe route (even in the dark) to get to Haleiwa town center. The bike trail ends at the traffic circle before you get to Haleiwa but there is sufficient pavement on the left hand side to allow you to cycle safely from that point into Haleiwa. Best to take it easy, as we encountered quad bikes, motocross bikes, cyclists, joggers and pedestrians along the trail.
We walked from North Shore trailhead to Kaena Point. Easy walking but recommend closed toe shoes and plenty of water. We were lucky enough to see the Laysan Albatross performing their mating dance and soaring through the skies. At the Point we saw three Hawaiian Monk seals and another had just landed at 10-minute beach. With mountains on one side and big surf on the other it was a breathtaking walk, we’ll worth the effort.
Lovely coastal ride on a rental one speed from Hele on Kauai. Level well maintained surface with plenty of spectacular lookouts along the way. We did only the ~5 mile northern section since the trail is not continuous. We saw southern section at Lydgate park which would not be particularly interesting as an isolated ride.
Beautiful oceanfront park with awesome views, it is very popular with locals. There are many paths, however some have holes, cracks, etc. The beaches off protected ocean swimming.
It was a very easy straight forward walk, plenty of beach stops, half way you’ll find a good truck (Thai fresh farm) A M A Z I N G! Highly recommended for biking or walking. Kids and family friendly
