MOST STATE PARKS, TRAILS AND CAMPING AREAS ON OʻAHU OPEN, SOME REMAIN CLOSED

Kaʻena Point State Park and Natural area Reserve

HONOLULU - All parks, trails and camping areas on Oʻahu run by the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) Division of State Parks have re-opened today, except for:

  • Ka'ena Point State Park (Mākua-Keawa'ula sections)
  • Pu'u o Mahuka Heiau State Historic Site
  • The Wahiawā Freshwater State Recreation Area

The Mokulēʻia Section of Kaʻena Point is closed to off-road vehicle access due to poor road conditions, but hikers are welcome.

The public is advised that the Wahiawā Freshwater State Recreation Area remains closed due to saturation and a risk of falling trees.

DLNR is asking for everyone's continued cooperation with staying out of closed areas and monitoring weather reports as conditions can change rapidly.

Please be advised: Parks, trails and camp areas may close again on Sunday due to another wave of heavy rains forecast for Kauaʻi, Oʻahu and possibly Maui County.
