Aloha!

It goes without saying that Oahu sets the bar when it comes down to do an adventurous hike.

Imbued with luscious and varied terrain from bamboo clearings, muddy baths, stairs of tree roots, waterfalls and natural pools, you're sure to be captivated under nature's spell of magical delight. She entices you deeper, until reaching the summit of her peaks to see all her glory amidst a caressing breeze and tangy whiffs of allure. But that's not all!

Going from downtown Waikiki to the summit of various ridges, you can be at the doorstep to most hikes in under 20 minutes. While traveling, Lyft or Uber provide an easy gateway at a trivial price for back-to-back adrenaline rush--right in people's backyards.

With so much to do at the touch of your fingertips, Poylwander's sharing our top 2 to get you on the move.
