Ahupua'a 'O Kahana State Park, formerly known as the Kahana Valley State Park, stretches from Kahana Bay rising more than 2,670 feet to the tip of Pu?u Pauao.
Located between Ka'a'awa and Punalu'u on the windward side of Oahu, the park is Hawaii's only public ahupua'a (historic land division) and was established to teach visitors about the rich culture and history of the country.
The park boasts two hiking trails, namely the Kapa'ele'ele Ko'a and Keaniani Lookout Trail, which is a one-mile loop, and the 2.5-mile Nakoa Trail, which winds its way through lush tropical rainforests and freshwater streams.
Ten campsites on the beach are available for use with a permit, and licensed hunting is permitted within designated boundaries on weekends and holidays.
