Review:
Hanalei National Wildlife Refuge in Hanalei River Valley is the oldest refuge on Kaua`i. At 917 acres, it serves as a feeding and nesting habitat for endangered water birds. Five are protected by the Endangered Species Act – the Hawaiian duck, Hawaiian coot, Hawaiian moorhen, Hawaiian goose, and Hawaiian stilt. There are also 45 other bird species that are at home in the refuge making it a superb destination for bird lovers. Visitors will appreciate valley and waterfall-draped mountain views from the wooded hillsides that surround the habitat. To protect the endangered birds, Hanalei National Wildlife Refuge itself is off limits to the public.
