Difficulty
Good to go

Kohala Zipline (55-515 Hāwī Road, Hāwī, in the historic yellow Kohala Sugar Co. building; sister company to Hawaii Forest & Trail) offers a new Kohala Zipline Adventure: a 5-line canopy tour with 2 sky bridges and a spiral tree-based staircase, about 2.5 hours from start to finish and rated easy to moderate. The site lists it from $195 for adults and from $170 for children 8 to 12; whether tax is extra is not stated. Participants must be at least 8 years old and weigh between 70 and 270 lb, with a weigh-in at check-in.

Other options are a Zip and Dip (from $295, ages 8+, about 6 to 7 hours per the tour page though the homepage says 8, leaving from Hawaii Forest & Trail's Kona headquarters, with lunch, a short hike and a waterfall swim) and a 3-hour Swim Kohala Falls with no zipline. The office is typically open Monday to Saturday, 8 AM to 5 PM (808-331-3620); tour times sit in a booking calendar that could not be read. Cancellations are charged in full without 24 hours' notice. The site still carries a banner about building a new experience and some older FAQ text about the previous course, so treat the tour page as the reliable source.
