Kahakuloa
Head
"The Tall Land"
|
 |
| |
East of Kahakuloa Village
West Maui
This 636-foot high hill is situated on a point east
of the sleepy town of Kahakuloa. Part of this this hill
is called Kahekili's Leap. The 18th Century Maui King Kahekili
used spend some of his time in this area. Legend states
that before breakfast, the agile King would climb over 200-feet
up the hill and "leap" into the water below.

There is a hiking trail located between
Kahakuloa Head and the 547-foot hill to the right called
Pu'u Kahuli'anapa. From here are great views of the Head
towering above.

Trails lead to the top of Pu'u Kahuli'anapa
and Kahakuloa Head, however, the trail to the top of the
Head is very treacherous.

|
| |
- Wear sturdy hiking shoes if you plan to walk any of
these trails
- Carry plenty of water if hiking as there is no shade,
water, or facilities available
