Friendship Garden

When Gem first blogged about the Friendship Garden in 2015, I had no idea it existed, even though it's a hop and a skip from where I live. I finally decided to check it out for myself since it's a short hike with sweeping views of Kaneohe Bay.

The start of the trail is marked by these stairs - look carefully as you can easily walk right past it.




A few yards up from the start of the trail you'll come across some reading material. Be sure to read the rules of the trail before you proceed.


Most of the trail looks like this - well maintained and clearly marked.






As you make your way up the trail you get peek-a-boo views of the Bay.



In no time, you'll reach the Lookout with breathtaking views of the windward side. Unfortunately it was a bit overcast on this day, but I still enjoyed the view.




Coming back down is not that steep but be careful especially after the rain, as the stones and roots can get slippery.



 I regret waiting so long to check out this trail for myself. Next time I'm bringing my boys!

Note: if you are planning to check out this trail, please read this first.
