Frommer's Best Hiking Trips in Hawaii is intended for people for whom a good hike is an integral part of their vacation plans. It highlights the "best-of-the-best" of Hawaii's many hiking choices, focusing on accessible day hikes for a variety of abilities, plus some of the country's most popular multi-day options. The book will follow Frommer's usual highly organized approach: clear, thorough instructions on how to prepare for their trip; detailed breakdowns of the hikes themselves with easy-to-understand route instructions; star ratings and reasons to go; and lots of maps. In addition, the book will provide accommodation and dining options geared to the outdoor enthusiast; GPS directions for trailheads; and a full-color naturalist's guide for wildlife identification. In addition to the hikes themselves, each chapter will contain: hike index, trailhead map, 1-2 page write-up on the unique characteristics of the area, and an accommodation and dining guide.
The hikes will cover the entire region, including:
The many great walks on Oahu, including bamboo forests, stunning waterfalls, and routes within easy reach of Honolulu
Lava flows, ancient footpaths and Hawaii's highest summit are all on The Big Island
Maui's popular jungle hikes, coastal scenery and crater walks
The rainforests and spectacular cliffs of Molokai
The diversity of Kauai, including stellar bird watching routes and the classic Canyon Trail and Na Pali Coast
