One of the most amazing hikes in the world

Stairway to Heaven

Haiku Stairs, also called the Stairway to Heaven" is an iconic hike on the island of Oahu. This hike is illegal and can be quite dangerous. It has been closed for safety reasons. If you decide to attempt this hike, you are doing so at your own risk. This includes fines of over $1000 for trespassing, security guards and broken handrails. Stairway to Heaven is a 3,922-step trail that takes you to the 2,800-foot summit of Puu Keahiakahoe on the Windward Side of Oahu. There is also a legal option, which is The Moanalua Trail. This 5 mile hike is pretty hard and steep. For more information about the hike visit: http://www.trevellers.com/how-to-hike-stairway-to-heaven-hawaii/
