The hike to Manoa Falls, according to our guide book, is the second most popular hike after Diamond Head. Em and I were not impressed with the falls but really enjoyed the hike through the rainforest to get there and the drive to the falls through Manoa Valley. If you go, the hike is 1 mile each way and fairly gradual. If it has rained recently expect to get muddy.

Bamboo, bamboo everywhere so let's all have a drink.

Now that I've been to a proper rain forest jungle I'm not sure I want to spend to much time there in the future. If you misbehave on the trail, as I did, you get put in the bramble.

Manoa Falls plummets 160 feet into a small pool. It didn't have much volume the day we where there.
