Pihea Peak view to Alakai Swamp & cloudy Mt. Wai'ale'ale, one of wettest spots on earth. Kauai, Hawaii, USA.

From Pihea Peak trail, look towards Alaka'i Swamp and cloudy Mt. Wai'ale'ale (one of the wettest spots on earth) on the island of Kauai, Hawaii, USA. A DLNR fence attempts to control invasive feral ungulates such as pigs, goats and deer. The potholed Pihea Trail starts at Pu'u O Kila Lookout at the end of the road in Kokee State Park, and traverses a spectacular cliff edge of Na Pali-Kona Forest Reserve, overlooking the Kalalau Valley. Slippery wet clay makes this a challenging hike of 2.6 miles round trip with 500 feet gain to Pihea Peak. (If weather permits, continue past Pihea Peak to Alaka'i Swamp Trail.)
