Hike Maui With a Native Hawaiian Guide

On Tuesday, March 7, 2006 you can join a Native Hawaiian guide from the Kipahulu Ohana on a hike through the Kipahulu area of Haleakala National Park on the island of Maui. Hikers will visit sites representing several eras of Hawaiian history, including the Kapahu Living Farm, where traditional taro and other Polynesian introduced plants have been restored to active production. The one hour tours begin at the Kipahulu Visitor Center, which is a 3 or 4 hour drive from the Wailea and Kaanapali areas. Bring drinking water, snacks, rain gear, money for park entrance fees, and shoes with good traction. For more information about the hike see the Taro Patch Hiking Tour Web page.
