Outfitters Kauai - Hidden Valley Falls Kayak Adventure
The Hidden Valley Falls Kayak Adventure is an easygoing Kauai kayak tour on the gentle Huleia River. Enjoy a 2-mile downwind paddle through the Huleia National Wildlife Refuge, a peaceful area known for its beautiful river scenery, mountain views and tropical greenery.
After the kayak portion, the adventure continues with a 1.5-mile roundtrip nature hike through a fern-covered valley. Along the trail, you'll walk through lush jungle scenery toward a series of three pool-drop waterfalls and a refreshing swimming hole. The guide shares stories about the valley, local legends and the natural surroundings.
Along the way, enjoy views of the Haupu Mountain Range and the 2,000-foot shield volcano that rises above the river area. After the hike and waterfall stop, rather than kayaking back upstream, relax on a motorized canoe ride back to the starting area. This tour is easy-going fun and excitement for everyone without a whole lot of work.
