The Start 

 

Mau'umae - Lanipo is one of my favorite trail. It's a good practice for people like me who have a high goal of doing the advance & expert trails. This is a classic trail with up and down and narrow path that has a drop on each side. As a person who is a little bit scared of heights and falling, this hike is a real gym and start for you to get used to heights. The drops is less than 500 feet but then it will make you used to trekking along the ridges and climbing the boulders. I truly love this trail and will do it again and again in the future.
