Kalihiwai Falls is a beautiful two-tiered fall that is visible from the bridge that spans the Kalihiwai River. There used to be a pullout near the bridge but it was closed. Walking across the bridge for a better look is ill advised given the traffic.The falls are accessible by hiking or horseback riding several companies offer guided hikes in this lush area of Kauai. Weddings are also popular at this location.
Take Highway 56 west from Kilauea toward Princeville. An unnamed waterfall will be at Mile Marker #25. The Kalihiwai Falls is just past the unnamed falls and can be seen the long bridge crossing the Kalihiwai River.
