Makahiku Falls

With a name meaning "water that recognizes no friend," this cascade crashes from a height of 200ft through a cathedral-like jungle setting into the Ohe’o Gulch stream (otherwise known as the Seven Sacred Pools). It's accessible via a 0.5-mile walk along the Pipiwai Trail. These waters are dangerously fast and not suitable for swimming.
