Is that the trail that starts up in a neighborhood? Then winds around the mountain and every valley you enter charges from ginger to bamboo? I hiked a trail 15 years ago that I LOVED and I could never quite figure out the name when I wanted to tell someone to go hike it.

No that sounds like Ka’au Crater. Are there lots of water falls?
This one starts above UH at the state recreation area. Beautiful, challenging trail
Actually I don’t remember very many waterfalls. I did some more looking on AllTrails. Now I think it was the aiea loop that I extended into the aiea ridge trail because I do remember the view of the highway going into the tunnel. It wasn’t super challenging but the views were cool and the diversity of vegetation was amazing! That being said I was there for about 6 weeks and if I wasn’t working I was on a trail so some of them may be merging in my mind.
Ahh Aiea Ridge is a great trail. So many incredible, challenging hikes on Oahu. I feel blessed to live here.
