Trail Hiking in Hawaii

By Pamela Wright, David Thompson and Michael Tsai

The islands, each unique and geographically diverse, boast a variety of hikes and terrain to rival anywhere in the world. The most difficult part about hiking in Hawaii is deciding which trail to take. Do you head for the summit of a 13,000-foot volcano, where you may encounter snow and blooming silversword? Do you opt to walk deep into a wet, tropical forest to discover plants and birds found nowhere else in the world?

Here we highlight six hikes from our book Best Hiking Trips in Hawaii that are suitable for most families.
