Ka'uiki Hill


 
Uakea, Hana

Ka'uiki Hill is located on the right side of Hana Bay. This hill was formed in one of the last lava events on Maui. A volcanic vent sprayed lava up into the air. This gaseous lava was caught by the trade winds coming off the ocean, piling the lava into a hill.
 
 

The lava is rich with iron giving the hill and nearby beaches a deep red color. There is a trail that leads along Ka'uiki Hill to a red sand beach pocket. Along this trail is a plaque marking the site where Queen Ka'ahumanu was born in a nearby cave. She was the favorite wife of King Kamehameha I. The point of Ka'uiki Hill stretches into the ocean where a small light beacon is located to warn ships of the shoreline.
  
 

Useful Information:

  • Trail to Ka'uiki Hill begins to the right of Hana Pier and goes about 200 yards to the red sand pocket beach (see HANA for additional information on this beach)
  • Wear sturdy shoes for the hike as the ground is rocky with loose volcanic cinder making the trail slipper
  
  Directions:
Park at Hana Bay Beach in Hana. To the right of the Hana Pier is the trail to the Hill.
