Makahiku Falls is a tall horsetail waterfall in Hawaii, dropping 200 ft (61 m).
Makahiku Falls sits on Pīpīwai Stream (ʻOheʻo Gulch). It lies in Maui, Hawaii. The site is on public land managed by National Park Service - Haleakalā National Park (Kīpahulu District).
This is a short hike waterfall: reached by a short trail, generally under about a mile each way. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 1 miles round trip. The nearest town is Hāna.
When to go: Year-round (subject to flash-flood closures after heavy rain). Like most waterfalls, Makahiku Falls runs highest after snowmelt or heavy rain and can thin out in late summer, so it's worth checking recent streamflow and the land manager's conditions page before a long drive.
