Diamond Head highlights
One of Diamond Head's most impressive aspects is its location. While the view from the peak is impressive, you'll also find yourself on the edge of a crater that dates back 300,000 years. With that context in mind, it adds a new sense of awe to the experience.
Hiking to the edge of a volcano isn't something you can do very often, but that's the kind of unique experience that Diamond Head offers. The trail itself stretches 1.6 miles return, and you can enjoy the convenience of a paved surface and handrails. Just be aware that there are still some spots of uneven rock.
Good to know when visiting Diamond Head
Travelling to Diamond Head is particularly convenient given the number of facilities available at its peak. You'll find bathrooms, water fountains, and a picnic area. Additionally, several informational and historical displays are present, offering valuable information about the area.
If you're visiting on a Saturday, you may want to stop by the Kapiolani Community College Farmers Market. They offer locally grown food and meals right across the street from the entrance to Diamond Head, so it's a prime destination for getting something to eat before or after your hike. Of course, several cafés and restaurants line the street as well.
