Kahanu Gardens
The remarkable Kahanu Gardens cover 122 acres of ethnobotanical wonders, including the world's largest breadfruit tree collection. Operated by the National Tropical Botanical Garden, which is dedicated to the conservation of rare and medicinal plants, Kahanu Gardens features collections from the tropical Pacific. Most interesting is the canoe garden, landscaped with plants brought to Hawaii by early Polynesian settlers.

Ke'anae Arboretum
Time for a stretch? Ke'anae Arboretum, 0.75 miles past the 16-mile marker, follows a stream bed past an array of shady trees. Coolest of all are the painted eucalyptus trees and the golden-stemmed bamboo, whose green stripes look like the strokes of a Japanese shodoartist. The path, which takes about 20 minutes to walk, passes ginger and other fragrant plants before ending at taro patches.
