The Makiki Valley Loop is actually a combination of the Kanealole Trail, the Maunalaha Trail, and the Makiki Valley Trail. It is a little over three miles RT. The east (right side from the Trailhead) has a bit steeper pitch/climb to it. So you can adjust the direction of the loop depending on if you want a little more or less climb. The trail has enough pitch to get your heart rate up, but isn't so taxing that kids can't do it. I see plenty of kids doing this hike. It is not that strenuous.
I plan to add caches to this loop over the course of the next several months. I will not be placing them "in order". In other words, don't worry about the number in the title - they aren't intended to be sequential finds. Just keep hiking the loop and you will come across all of caches.
One thing to note. There is alot of foliage on this trail, so GPS readings can be a bit sketchy. I will continue to create waypoint averages as I hike this loop and refine the coordinates appropriately.
There is an alternate path leading to the trailhead from the parking lot. Most folks walk on the paved road. The easiest way to this TB is to take the alternate path, not the road. It is meant to be a 1-1 TB Hotel, so please take only as many as you leave. Mahalo for your help.
