I've done that hike twice 1991 and 1999. In my lifetime, I can guarantee you that it's the most beautiful hike that I will ever do. The view is breathtaking so is the foggy mist, and no flies or bugs. I've been on island of Oahu four different times in my life - twice military & twice civilian...and I also went to Kauai for my honeymoon in 2000. I could live on any of the islands and I would love to retire there. My wife said it's too far away from family.

Found this video from a search after reading the SFGate article “Terrifying sign posted at Hawaii’s notoriously dangerous Olomana Trail” about the six deaths on this trail. Very cool but I can see why it’s so dangerous. Thanks for the video!

dont forget to disclose all of the lives it has claimed... people falling hundreds of feet to their death. it is by no means an easy trail on the best of days. Scenic, yes.... but comes with a steep price. Not everything is palm trees and calm breezes in HI.

Please know that one wrong step and it’s not a bad day, it’s the end of your life. Just like Kevin said someone died the other day. Even us local die there too. There are plenty of other hikes with better views of the island with less risk involved.

Rescue crews have been dispatched to the trail five times this year and responded to 13 calls in 2021. At least five others have died on the trail since 2011, officials said.

Don't call this a hike. It is climbing with real risk of death. I live close to it (I see my roof in this video), and strongly advise people to keep off it. Not worth the risk, people.

I made it to the first peak without realizing how intense the hike was. Definitely had to sit down on the first peak for a while before I got the courage to climb back down. Views were stunning but phew it was scary. Thanks for showing what peak 2 and 3 looked like! I always wondered.

According to reports, 5 people have died on Olomana Trail. Hiking Olomana can be dangerous, especially between the second and third peaks when it is wet. Jacqueline Turner fell 150 feet in 2004 but survived. On the same day, Mel Yoshioka, another hiker, fell while descending the backside of Olomana’s second peak. He, too, made it. Ryan Suenaga, a 44-year-old experienced hiker, died in the same location in April 2011, and Mitchell Kai, a 27-year-old off-duty Honolulu Firefighter, died in the same part in January 2014. In June 2015, a 52-year-old former Navy veteran died after falling around 200 feet, the third fatality atop Olomana in four years.A guy was discovered 400 feet below the hiking trail on April 1, 2018. He was flown to a nearby park by helicopter, where he was pronounced dead. Olomana is not a state-approved trail, and parts of the terrain, especially near the first peak, can be rather treacherous. “It’s slippery if it’s raining, it’s very steep, and some portions you’ll have to rock climb and lapel down it,” Mendes added. “On that first peak, you have to lapel your way down, which is pretty dangerous if you don’t like heights.”

Another Hiker fell to his death this week and HFD had to risk their lives to get his body. At least his followers got to see his last post on his social media account. People are trying to blame the state & property owners that their no signs to warn people of how DANGEROUS it is to go off and explore . Apparently people can’t read because Haiku Stairs is CLOSED/Fence off&blocked pisted with signs yet people just ignore and break the law and go and hike the trail anyways wtf 🤬

Locals do not recommend this trail, the trail is on private property and so you will be trespassing.
