Descent

The Pohakupule Lookout in Honokohau, Hawaii (Maui) is a 0.1-mile out-and-back roadside lookout that features views of Maui's rugged northern coastline.

This is not a hike, but rather a short walk to a seaside cliff vista. Visitors will walk to the top of a rock ledge that provides views of the shoreline with beautiful blue and turquoise waters below.

Parking
Visitors will find a large parking turnout at the coordinates provided. The lot is large enough to fit less than 10 vehicles.

Pets
Dogs are allowed if leashed and cleaned up after.

Warnings
Cliffs: This short trail leads out to seaside cliffs that plunge well-over 50-feet to the ocean below. Stay back from the ledge to keep it safe and hike at your own risk.

Respecting the Land
Hawaiian land is considered sacred to native Hawaiians and many locals, so please stay on-trail, take nothing but photos, and leave nothing but footprints. Respect the locals - don't stay for long and have a backup hike planned in case the parking lot is full.

Before you leave...

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.

It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.

Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉

Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
