Akaka Falls Frommer's Exceptional

Location On Hwy. 19, (8 miles north of Hilo)
Transportation Turn left at Honomu and head 3 1/2 miles inland on Akaka Falls Rd. (Hwy. 220)

Frommer's Review

See one of Hawaii's most scenic waterfalls via an easy 1-mile paved loop through a rainforest, past bamboo and ginger, and down to an observation point. You'll have a perfect view of 442-foot Akaka and nearby Kahuna Falls, which is a mere 100-footer. Keep your eyes peeled for rainbows.
