There are many well-known trails on O’ahu, some maintained by the state and others under private jurisdiction. In addition, experienced hikers know of many obscure, less traveled trails that often pass through more pristine wilderness. Because hikes are sometimes in sensitive areas, posting hikes on social media and the use of AllTrails and public sharing of Gaia will not be allowed. Depending on the ability of the group, hikes will average between 3-4 miles. Hikes start at 9:00 am and usually end around 2:00 pm. Participants should be in fit condition and experienced with uneven terrain, narrow and unimproved trails, extended ups and downs, and ridges with drop-offs. Hikes may also involve slippery trails, use of ropes, and stream crossings on slippery rocks. We hike as a group and hikers are expected to complete hikes without turning back early, which may not be possible or allowed. The goal is to provide fun, interesting and challenging hikes that will leave experienced and fit hikers with a good workout and a feeling of accomplishment.
