Outfitters Kauai - Hidden Valley Falls Kayak Adventure

The Hidden Valley Falls Kayak Adventure is an easygoing Kauai kayak tour on the gentle Huleia River. First, enjoy a 2-mile downwind paddle through the Huleia National Wildlife Refuge, a peaceful area known for river scenery, mountain views and tropical greenery. This tour is a fun choice for many ages and skill levels because the route is calm and scenic.

After the kayak portion, the adventure continues with a 1.5-mile roundtrip nature hike through a fern-covered valley. Along the trail, guests walk through lush jungle scenery toward a series of three pool-drop waterfalls and a refreshing swimming hole. In addition, 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. Then, after the hike and waterfall stop, relax on a motorized canoe ride back to the starting area. As a result, the Hidden Valley Falls Kayak Adventure combines paddling, hiking, swimming and river scenery without feeling too strenuous.
