Diamond Head is a striking volcanic tuff cone in Honolulu, Oʻahu, known for its iconic shape and stunning summit views. The 1.6-mile round-trip hike is moderately challenging, featuring steep switchbacks, stairs, and a tunnel, climbing 560 feet to the 762-foot summit, which once served as a military lookout. The effort is well worth it, especially at sunrise, with panoramic views of the coastline and city below. Out-of-state visitors need reservations, and the site is open daily from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. The trail is well-kept, making it accessible for most hikers who want to enjoy Oahu’s natural beauty. Truly a must-visit destination when on the island.

Great place to hike! But you need to be in shape because it’s a little bit of going up and coming back on rocks and stairs. We rode bikes until the entrance and it was great. The scene and views great and many birds and other animals to see on the trails.

Make sure to go online and book ahead $5. I chose the 4pm hike and definitely a great time to go as this hike is not shaded. I took the bus from Waikiki down, super easy bus ride. It’s kinda a long walk from the bus stop to the park but warms up the glutes and the views are spectacular. Once you enter you show your QR code. From top to bottom I finished in about an hour. Many lookout spots along the way and for me rest spots because I was out of breath. From the lighthouse to the endless ocean views it just never is enough. I would definitely do this again on my next visit to the islands. 🌺

A must do trail while in Honolulu as the peak provides unmatched vista viewpoints you will not get anywhere else in Honolulu. This park has various rules that are fully enforced. The approach to the park is unique through a one-way traffic tunnel. The parking fee is included in the ticket and is $10 per vehicle, and entry in park is $5 per person. The trail is categorized as moderate and is more in the easier side. The trail starts off from the visitor center as a paved path, which converts into more rugged dusty trail. Still very easy to grip and walk on. At the end of the trail there are one set of stairs to go up, followed by a tunnel, and then two options are either 99 steep stair steps or a loop. The stairs end up at a spiral staircase which then leads out to vista point. There are still more steps to climb on the watch point. The round trip is probably two miles. The park has a lot of rules and restrictions. You can only buy a timed ticket in advance, and you must arrive within the first thirty minute of your timed zone or they will not allow you entry, please be careful they do turn back people. Similarly the park closes at 6 PM so they need you and your vehicle to be out of the park otherwise you will be locked in and only way out will be through a hefty fine and police involvement. The park rules are really strict and are strictly enforced so please follow the rules as listed on their website. There are public restrooms right behind the visitor center, along with two hydration stations.

This was a really great hike! The path itself it’s not that bad until you reach the stairs to get to the top where the lookouts are located (there’s a lot of stairs, so be prepared!). I did not realize I had been inside the volcano crater all along until I reached the top of the hiking path, which I thought it was so amazing and it was incredible to see that the crater itself it’s huge. Be aware that the hiking path does get crowded and depending on the time of the day it can also get really hot. I would recommend doing this hike early in the morning as it would be cooler and probably less crowded. The views at the top are completely worth it. Bring lots of water!!!!!! Also get your tickets in advance as you will not be allowed to hike without it. It’s was easy to get tickets and they were only $5 per person, without paying for parking as I did not have a car. I did order them 30 days prior to coming here as they go really fast!
