Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
Ahupuaa O Kahana State Park also known as Kahana Valley State Park, is Hawai'i's only public ahupua'a, stretching from O'ahu's windward Pacific Ocean coastline to the tip of Pu'u Pauao.
The park, which is accessible just uphill from Kahana Bay, serves as a center of Hawai'ian culture and education, detailing the history of the area's use as a taro-growing agricultural center, World War II jungle warfare training center, and plantation estate. Following the death of estate owner Mary E. Foster at the turn of the 20th century, the land was transferred to the care of the state and converted into a state park. Today, visitors can enjoy opportunities for hiking along the Kapa'ele'ele Ko'a and Keaniani Lookout and Nakoa Trails, which showcase beautiful tropical rainforest landscapes. 10 campsites are located along the park's beaches, available with advance permits.
