Hiking The Lahaina Pali Trail on West Maui? Be Prepared!

Tackle The Lahaina Pali Trail

While there are numerous must-see destinations and amazing experiences in West Maui that are easily accessible by road, the Lahaina Pali Trail gives you a different way to enjoy a remote, natural experience on the island.
