WAYDESWORLDHAWAII's video: LANIKAI PILLBOX TRAIL RE-EDITED HD Wayde s World Hawaii

(Easy / Moderate Activity) "CHILD FRIENDLY" over 10 years old, stay on path Mauka side...NOT ALONG RIDGE LEDGE Makai side like I do in this video. The Lanikai Pillbox Trail is considered by most to be one of the easiest hikes with some of the most amazing views. However, I don't recommend it for children under 12. The start of the hike consists of a major incline up to the first outlook. Once you reach that outlook the views will carry you to the final destination...This hike has several Pillboxes as your incline continues but just the excitement alone within you carries you higher and higher. You will forget all about the fact that you are climbing a ridge line to reach that final Pillbox and STUNNING VIEW of not only Kailua and Lanikai but all the way to the Makapuu Lighthouse! If you watch this video at several points I do some things that look dramatic. I choose to go the harder way right along the rocky ridge line but there are several ways to reach the Pillboxes and all are easier then the way I choose. You choose which way to go easy or hard. I have done this trail so many times I continue to try to find harder ways to get to the top. Please enjoy this hour hike. It's truly a hike you should not MISS if you are on Oahu. Also I would highly hope you attempt this at SUNRISE. Bring a flashlight or head lamp and head up about 5am. YOU WILL NOT REGRET sitting on top of the Pillbox as the SUN RISES for you! Bring your camera and the one you love and enjoy a moment in time that will be cherished. *NOTE if it is a bright sunny day the SUN will be brutal so bring plenty of water and SUNBLOCK. The good NEWS is this is the WINDWARD side of the island and you will have a steady pace of wind and breeze, you can also enter the Pillboxes for shade. Because of the wind clouds come and go fast and some may bring a shower but they will pass quickly. There is always a chance you will be given a gift of a RAINBOW over the Mokes, the twin islands you overlook. Much Aloha everyone and enjoy one of the shortest and rewarding hiking trail on the island.
