Hike
Twin Falls is the first waterfall on the Road to Hana. Several trails lead to these falls (which actually number more than two). These falls are not as spectacular as some of the other falls along the Road to Hana but, if you have the time and it is not raining, they are worth the stop. The first and closest set of Twin Falls has a rope swing that drops into a natural pool below the fall. The second Twin Falls is about another mile up Ho'olawanui Stream. Daredevils frequently jump from the top of these falls into the pool below.
Be courteous, informed, and prepared. Read trailhead guidelines, stay on the trail, and don't feed the wildlife.
