PinzTrek

This fun and exciting three and a half hour exploration begins at Hawaii Forest & Trail in their 6 x 6 Pinzgauer. Climb aboard with your companions and we'll head up the side of Hualalai, one of Hawaii's most fascinating natural volcanic areas. Their off-road Pinzgauers carry you from sea-level through a dense rainforest to a world of volcanic majesty at the 6,000 ft. elevation on the privately owned lands of Kaupulehu.


Guide

Although in plain sight of Kailua-Kona, these seldom-visited uplands are seemingly geologic light-years away! Amidst distinctive native birdsongs, our rock-rambling tour will take you through a beautiful and surreal landscape of native dryland forest, lava flows and enormous, deep craters.

Your Interpretive Guide will also lead you, on foot, on an exploration an impressive lava tube. In this quiet and refreshing sub-alpine climate, our interpretive guides will explain the awe-inspiring forces of volcanism and the historic eruptions that changed the landscape of the Kona Coast far below.

FAQs

  • How much hiking do we do? We'll stop a couple times throughout the adventure for short hikes of less than ½ a mile.
  • Is there elevation gain? The single track trail meanders through native forest with a mild elevation change of approximately 30 feet. While exploring the lava tube, expect to descend and ascend approximately 30 - 40 feet.

Rated: Easy to Moderate / Ages 8 and over.

Unique & Awesome Experience
We really enjoyed the trip up to the Hualalai volcano.
The military vehicle itself was a trip. It took us up "roads" that would seem impassable. Hikers on the side of the trail actually stood with their mouths wide open as we passed ...More
