This trail is a proper adventure for those who don't mind getting a bit muddy. The hike is challenging but the waterfall at the end is a sweet reward. It is a long trek, so come prepared with good shoes and plenty of water. The permit process is easy, and the scenery is spot on for a true Hawaiian jungle experience.
