- Hiking Kauai | Makaleha Falls - Jungle Adventure up a Stream
This hike was an incredible adventure. We had a blast exploring up the stream and swimming in the beautiful pool beneath the waterfall. This excursion was similar to the Weeping Wall hike that we posted a few months ago. There are unmarked trails that can be hard to follow and most of the hike is rock-hopping on the river. It's not a hike for everyone and its best to have someone guide you if you haven't done it before. After reading the comments on Alltrails it's apparent that many tourists have gotten lost and turned around on this trail. Luckily, Richard had hiked this trail before. Following the river is your best bet.
If you are down for an adventure, this was a spectacular experience that I highly recommend! It is a great hike to do if you want to take many breaks to swim in the stream. If you are unable to visit Kauai or complete this hike, watch the video to see our experience, it's worth it!
If you do have the change to visit this beautiful area, we recommend getting Tabbis, special water shoes that fishermen use when spearfishing. These shoes help you grip on wet slippery rocks due to the felt bottoms.
Thanks for watching!
Hannah and Richard

I love hiking and that waterfall look gorgeous
Thanks we love hiking too!
What was the best hike you did in Kauai with the best waterfall. Going this week and want to know what you recommend . Looking to do 2 hikes.
Loved your hiking video it's like a jungle in there.
Thank you! That’s one of the things I live about Kauai, the forests are jungles!
what a really amazing place looks like you had so much fun love the waterfull
Thank you, we loved this hike. It was so fun following the river and being able to swim at any point if we got too hot.
I love hiking and the waterfall is so beautiful! This looks like an awesome hike to go on
Thank you, this hike was incredible! We had a lot of fun!
This makes me so excited to visit Hawaii again! Hiking is the best especially if there's waterfalls! I love the tips you shared too!
Thank you! Glad we got to bring back some memories. We love hiking.
I love watching Makaleha videos just to see people taking the dummy trails. A lot of times they cut the video at those spots🤣
Love all of your hiking trails!!! Such a beautiful place!!!! 💕 🤗 The hike through the bamboo forest is amazing!
Thank you! This hike was so so fun and the bamboo was so interesting to walk through. It really blocked the light.
This hike looks a bit tricky, seems twiggy, rocky, with hills...Have get prepared to be creative with my steps! Beautiful scenery as always!
This hike is definitely not for beginners! We have many other hikes that are much easier on our channel, if you are interested in hiking on Kauai.
Y'all are so adventurous! I love hiking, but I always get nervous when I'm hiking on an unmarked trail. They're usually worth it though. This one looked like it was! The streams and scenery make it look beautiful and like it was so much fun.
The waterfall 😍😍😍
Yes, this hike is definitely not for beginners for that reason. Many people don't finish the hike because they get lost. We never do a new hike alone if it's on an unmarked trail like this and if the map for it is incomplete. Luckily, Richard had done this hike before so with his memory and the gps map we were able to do it!
Wow Hawaii is so beautiful to explore! It does truly feel like paradise! I’ve only been once but I’ve wanted to go back and actually explore the islands!
Each island is very different I've been told. Kauai is known to be the best for hiking and nature because it has very little development and population compared to the other islands. I encourage you to do your research and see which one is the best fit for you!
Good call on the water shoes! The hike looked amazing especially walking through the bamboo.. The waterfall looked beautiful so it's definitely worth the effort to get there.. I will definitely consider doing this hike next time we visit Kauai.. Thanks for sharing! 💖
Tabbis are essential for hiking on wet rocks like Makaleha Falls or the Weeping Wall, another video of ours. This hike is definitely not for beginners and it's easy to get lost because the trail is not well marked. If you do visit, I hope you get a chance to do a hike or two because it is simply the best way to experience the island.
I literally was JUST telling. My boyfriend I wanted to go on a hike like this last night!
That's awesome! We love these types of hikes they are so adventurous. Thank you for watching, hope you get a chance to go exploring soon.
I’ve never tried hiking too scared ahaha but your vlog makes me wanna try it out!
Hiking doesn't need to be up massive mountains, it's as simple as a walk in the woods. I encourage you to get offline and go for a walk in nature, see how you like it.
Your journey videos makes me want to go travel so badly :)
Hope you get a chance to travel sometime soon!
You seem like such an adventurous couple!
Thank you, we both love hiking a lot!
What a fun hike! Would you attempt to do this?
