With near-perfect weather year-round and arguably some of the most incredible natural scenery in the world, the Hawaiian Islands are home to some of the country’s greatest adventures. From camping on the beach and visiting Waimea Canyon to waterfall hikes and skydiving, there is no greater place for an adventure than Hawaii. And while the options are almost endless, this rappelling excursion on the island of Maui will easily be the coolest thing you do in the Aloha State all year.
Whether you live on Maui or are visiting for the first time, there’s little more exciting than exploring an off-the-beaten-path rainforest valley that hides a secret waterfall along the famous Hana Highway — except perhaps the thrill of rappeling down said waterfall?
