Kaua'i Trails

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago

This was one of two books we used while hiking Kauai. The description of floral and birds one might see on certain trails was extremely good. Since we are birders this was very beneficial. Excellent text and very detailed.

Excellent trail book

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago

I can't imagine the trip we took without this guide. It took us along trails that were stunning and amazingly little traveled. I felt like we saw the REAL Kauai. Surely it wasn't the hotels at the shore. Our only complaint is that some of the trails narrowed without warning at high altitudes and in places that seemed less than safe - especially along the Napoli coast. But all in all it made our trip the excellent journey that it was.

Very Helpful

11-06 Just returned from Kauai traveling with an impaired walker. The book was fabulous for planning side trips. Level of difficulty, distance and even type of shoe required are all here. Good maps & info. I can't wait to return with a fellow hiker to take advantage of all the great trips and tips in this book.

Hiking in Kauai

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago

We just returned from a vacation in Kauai and found this book very helpful. We're not hard core hikers but we like to stroll the beaches and wander down a path or two and this book was very helpful in determining which hikes were "at our level" or not. The author is right on with the assessments of levels of difficulty and time it took on the hikes we took.
