How to visit

Waimanu is a wilderness valley reached only by the Muliwai Trail from Waipiʻo — a strenuous two-day route. State permit required for camping. Stream water must be filtered or treated. Do not enter closed cultural sites. Take everything out, including human waste; the valley has no infrastructure for cleanup.
