DIAMONDHEAD

Hiking Diamondhead was by far one of my favorite parts of the trip. We ran 3 miles to Diamondhead from our hotel and then hiked to the top of the mountain. It was quite the workout, but well worth it once we got to the top and were able to see the incredible views of Oahu.

We had to run through a tunnel to get to the start of the trail. YIKES - It looks pretty steep from this point.

YAY! We finally made it to the top! Look at the gorgeous views!
Me on the hike down the mountain - this part was definitely easier!
They had a bus selling Hawaiian shaved ice at the bottom of Diamondhead so this was the perfect end to our hike! Now, we just have to run 3 miles back to the hotel. OH DEAR!
