Tantalus is a set of trails in the back woods of Honolulu. Surprisingly I haven’t checked them out until I was over in the area the other day and I had Jess meet me to explore. We could only get a couple miles in, but it was a great exploration adventure!
First of all, you drive up these switchbacks and end up at a lookout with an amazing view of Honolulu and Diamondhead. It’s a little paved path out to this lawn area and overlook.
It happened to be raining so I got a couple epic rainbows
We had just enough time to fit in a small loop so we took Uala’ka and nearly got lost a bunch of times because there a few off the record trails. We got two miles in before the sunset though.
I didn’t want to spend too much time lallygagging but here’s a really beautiful tree. Pictures never do these justice.
Excited to get back there and explore more.
