The Kalalau Trail leads 11 miles along the rugged Nā Pali Coast on the north shore of the island of Kauai, Hawaii. The Trail traverses 5 lush valleys, above towering cliffs, before ending at Kalalau Beach where it is blocked by sheer, fluted pali. Most will take between 2-3 days to finish the trail. Our plan was to travel fast and light, running the entire 22 mile return trip in roughly 8 hours.
For anyone planning on visiting Kauai, I'd recommend picking up a copy of 'The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook, Kauai Revealed': https://amzn.to/2F0Z8Xo
