Hike to top of Diamond Head - famous landmark in Honolulu

 


View Diamond head from Waikiki beach

 


Military tunnel as the crater still has a military base inside

By the time we had found our way out to Diamond head by local bus, it was the middle of the day & stinking hot. The bus dropped us off with a very long walk into the Diamond Head National park. Took us about 1/2 hour to walk in

 


 


Long tunnel to walk through before we start the hike up the mountain

 


 


 


 


 


 


 


AWESOME VIEWS !!

 


 


 


We made it !!! View from the top overlooking Waikiki beach, MAGIC !!! Well worth the climb

 


 


 


Plenty of stairs to climb, certainly takes your breath away !!!!

Well deserved lunch after our trek to the top

 


Time to walk out again through the tunnel to bus stop, feeling a little weary, as it was one heck of climb
