Twin Falls

Just beyond mile marker 2 on the Hana Highway a bridge crosses the Ho‘olawanui stream and here you’ll find Twin Falls. But first, a word of advice. Twin Falls is a nice stop if you want to view several small falls. Compared to what is ahead of you on the Hana Highway though, it’s really not worth the time to stop here this early in your journey. We have talked with several people who have stopped at this location expecting grand waterfalls they’ll never find until further down the road.

If you do decide to stop now (or later) you can pull off and park on the mauka (toward the mountain) side of the road in a small parking lot which is usually accompanied by fruit stands. Walk through the small grassy area to a rock with a map drawn on it. Using this make-shift map you should be able to navigate to the various falls at this location. The round trip takes about an hour.

Jan-09 Update: We've received some news of rather unpleasant encounters with this stop lately; though we have not witnessed this ourselves. Apparently certain individuals have chosen to start dumping the remains of farm animals at this stop. You can read about one of these encounters here at Trip Advisor. We personally choose to now skip this falls on our journey down the highway. You may wish to do the same.

Beyond Twin Falls, between mile marker 3 and 4, close to Huelo town, you’ll start to encounter the first really sharp turns in the Highway.

Location: Twin Falls is located in the Northeast Maui Region
