Admission includedA short drive from Waikiki, Manoa Falls draws you into a world of dripping ferns, gnarled roots, and birdsong. The trail winds through one of Oahu's wettest valleys, where the air smells of earth and rain. At the end of the path, Manoa Falls spills down a mossy basalt cliff into a shallow pool. The canopy closes overhead, and the roar of the water fills the hollow, making the payoff feel well earned.
