Upper Puohokamoa Falls

Between mile markers 10-11 along the Hana Highway there are two impressive waterfalls, Upper & Lower Puohokamoa Falls.

Lower Puohokamoa Falls eludes nearly everyone driving the highway due to its hidden location. You have to view it before the upper falls, not after like you'd think. The pull out for the overlook is about 8/10 of a mile past mile marker 10 near a telephone pole. Here there is a path leading over alongside a fence that will take you to a small lookout where you'll be able to see the fall cascading around 160 feet down the green cliff.

Just beyond mile marker 11 there is a bridge and beside it a small parking space (mauka) where a short path leads you to the Upper Puohokamoa Falls and pool. This is the same falls that is visible from the Garden of Eden.

As of our last visit, the landowner (the Garden of Eden) was restricting access to the falls, so don't be surprised if it's still closed.

Location: Upper Puohokamoa Falls is located in the Northeast Maui
