Hiking trail Kaneohe, Hawaii, United States

What to expect

Pu'u Ma'eli'eli Digging Trail is a beginner to intermediate hike on the windward side of Oahu, offering stunning views of Kaneohe Bay and the Ko'olau Mountain Range. The 2.2-mile trail takes about 1-2 hours to complete and features a gradual incline, with some steep and muddy sections. The hike begins in the trees and ends at a pillbox with expansive views of the bay and surrounding landscape. Along the way, hikers can enjoy periodic glimpses of K-Bay and the windward coast. The trail is suitable for families, but parents should be aware that it can be slippery when wet and may require extra caution. The views from the pillbox are breathtaking, making it a great spot to take in the beauty of Oahu's windward side
