Twin Falls
Hāna Highway, East Maui
The Road to Hāna's First Easy Waterfall Stop
Twin Falls is usually the first easy waterfall stop on the Road to Hāna, a short walk through a working fruit farm to a set of accessible waterfalls and swimming holes — a popular, low-effort introduction to the drive's waterfall stops.
It's genuinely easy by Road to Hāna standards, but not risk-free: flash flooding is a real hazard in this area, and the Hāna Highway here has seen real storm-related closures.
Why Roamwise recommends this
A good, low-effort first waterfall stop on the Road to Hāna — just check conditions if there's been recent rain.
Best for: an easy early stop on the drive, travelers wanting a waterfall/swimming hole without a serious hike.
Insider tip: this is usually one of the first stops most people make on the drive — go early to beat the crowds that build through the day.
- Hazards / conditions:
- Flash floods are a real, sudden danger here — rising water can sweep through quickly and cut off a safe path back to the trailhead. Trails can be loose and muddy after rain, with rocks protruding underfoot. Vehicle break-ins are known to happen at the parking area — don't leave valuables in the car.
- Safety notes:
- If rain is heavy or recent, treat flash-flood risk as real, not theoretical — don't enter the stream areas if water looks like it's rising.
- Weather sensitivity:
- This stretch of the Hāna Highway has had real closures from heavy rain and flash flooding — check current road/trail conditions before going, especially after storms.
