Manoa Falls, Honolulu

This was a relatively easy hike. Most of the trail has a nice gravel base there were a few areas that were a bit tricky to navigate but nothing difficult. There was one location where I grabbed a root to help steady myself. I don't recall any handrails along the route. Pro Tip: bring a poncho. We didn't bring rain gear and we got absolutely SOAKED. It was sprinkling as we departed on our walk and it started raining harder and harder as we climbed. There was a lot of water running down and across the trail as we hiked. There were many places to stop and take photos along the way. The good thing is that the falls were very productive because all of the recent rainfall. The rain stopped as we got to the top - we experienced a few sprinkles on our way down. All in all it was a nice hike.

Do yourself a favor and either wear a good pair of hiking boots or sandals that you don't mind getting muddy. The trail is not that bad going to the falls, but the closer you get the wetter and muddier it gets. Would recommend that if you have knee or ankle problems that you take your time. It can get slippery. Great for people of all ages and worth the adventure!
