#mountain bike trail maui

Mountain biking enthusiasts now have new trails in the Makawao State Forest Reserve to enjoy. As a response to the increased popularity of trail activities, the DLNR Division of Forestry and Wildlife/Nā Ala Hele Trails and Access Program opened the Kahakapao Recreational Area. Nā Ala Hele is tasked with creating and maintaining trail systems on both private and state-owned lands, such as in State Forest Reserves. The new day-use only system contains more than ten miles of trails and incorporates two of the illegal “social” trails. Other illegal trails were rehabilitated and removed.

The new mountain biking trail will run parallel to the existing multi-use trail for approximately two miles along the eastern leg of the Kahakapao Loop Trail.
