    This is probably the most famous hike in Kauai. The trail goes for 11 miles and leads you to Na Pali Coast; the views along the way are simply beautiful. One needs a permit to go past the first 2 miles (it is assumed that you'll be camping if you go farther). At the end of the trail lies Kalalau Beach and above it the beautiful valley that you can see from the top of Waimea Canyon Drive at the Kalalau Lookout.

     FYI on the "Don't take dogs" piece, those are hunting dogs. They often run after goats/pigs and get lost for hours/days but eventually find their way home. If you find a random shirt hanging on a tree, leave it for the dogs to pick up their owner's scent.

     Hi Andrea, I'll be on Kauai beginning November 30th, until Dec. 16th '07, your tips are just what I was looking for thank you. Looks like I WILL be bringing my boot covers.
