A must do hike to see the bamboo forest, 200’ waterfalls, lush forests and fresh water pools. Breathtaking experience!
皮皮崴小径的点评
点评:The Pipiwai Trail is a beautiful trail located on the backside (South-East Side) of Haleakalā National Park.
The 4-mile round trip trail is a steep hike that leads through lush bamboo forests where you hear the hallow bamboo knocking against eachother, the 7 sacred pools to the breathtaking towering sheer-cliff Makahiku Falls (almost 200’ cliffs) and Waimoku Falls (sheer 400′ cliffs). Plunging over a verdant cliff covered with bamboo, lush ferns and vines melting into the postcard-perfect Hawaiian rainforest valley below.
Along the trail you will also find a gigantic banyan tree the size of a decent-sized house.
This trail is considered the best hike on the island. The trail winds around the freshwater stream Ohe’o Gulch with very beautiful and diverse scenery throughout.
And in true rain forest fashion it began raining 1/2 way through the hike but we continued on to make it a memorable experience. The pictures don’t do justice to the experience of this hike.
We’ve done this hike many times with other individuals of various hiking and physical fitness levels. Plan accordingly to allow sufficient time based on the steep trials and sometimes wet and slippery conditions. There aren’t any facilities along the trail either so make sure to stop at the restrooms in the parking lot entrance.
翻译:Pipiwai 步道是一条美丽的步道,位于哈莱阿卡拉国家公园的背面(东南侧)。4 英里的往返步道是一条陡峭的徒步路线,穿过茂密的竹林,您可以听到空竹相互撞击的声音,穿过 7 个神圣的水池,到达令人叹为观止的悬崖 Makahiku 瀑布(近 200 英尺的悬崖)和 Waimoku 瀑布(400 英尺的悬崖)。从覆盖着竹子的翠绿悬崖上跳下来,茂盛的蕨类植物和藤蔓融入下面明信片般完美的夏威夷雨林山谷。
沿着小径,您还会发现一棵巨大的榕树,大小相当于一栋相当大的房子。
这条小径被认为是岛上最好的徒步旅行路线。这条小径蜿蜒绕过淡水溪流 Ohe'o Gulch,沿途风景非常美丽和多样。
并且,在真正的雨林中,徒步旅行的一半路程开始下雨,但我们继续前进,让它成为一次难忘的经历。这些照片无法真实反映这次徒步旅行的体验。
我们曾多次与其他徒步旅行和体能水平不同的人一起进行这次徒步旅行。根据陡峭的山路和有时潮湿和湿滑的路况,制定相应的计划,留出足够的时间。沿途也没有任何设施,因此请务必在停车场入口处的洗手间停留。
