Join us for a huaka‘i in the Waikoloa Forest Preserve where you can learn about Waikōloa and the unique lowland dry forest that we are working to restore. On these guided hikes across the lava, you’ll see ancient wiliwili trees, sweeping views of Kohala, and kīpuka that have been revegetated with many native species by volunteers and WDFI staff. We offer sunset tours on the first Friday of each month. These tours begin at 5pm (4:30pm November-February) at our front gate and conclude with sunset viewing and refreshments at our Hana Hou Hale open-air pavilion. Tours will include walking over uneven terrain in exposed areas. The weather can be hot, dry, and occasionally very windy or rainy. Please arrive prepared by wearing sturdy close-toed shoes, wearing sun protection, and bringing a refillable water bottle. Donations are encouraged.
