Minutes from downtown Honolulu, Oʻahu’s mauka side opens into forested trails, quiet valleys, ridgelines, and overlooks.

In “Going Mauka,” the Honolulu Mauka Trail System unfolds as a network of 18 trails stretching across Mānoa, Makiki, Nuʻuanu, Pauoa, and Tantalus. Some routes connect directly through the forest, while others are linked by scenic roads such as Round Top Drive and Tantalus Drive.

The feature highlights three ways into the system: Judd Trail, a short rainforest loop near Nuʻuanu Stream and Jackass Ginger Pool; Makiki Loop, an accessible valley hike with native plantings, a restored loʻi, and connections in several directions; and Mānoa Cliffs, a quieter route known for forested ridgelines and views across Mānoa Valley.

Together, they show how close Honolulu’s mountain landscapes are to the city, and how easily one trail can lead to another.

From clear spring creeks to canyon rivers, Central Oregon is one of the West’s most renowned fly-fishing destinations.

Near Camp Sherman, the Metolius runs cold, clear, and challenging. North of Bend, the Lower Deschutes cuts through basalt canyon walls on its way to the Columbia. The Crooked River is known for year-round redband trout fishing, while the Fall River stays steady through every season, even when winter brings snow.

In “Cast Away,” writer Gregg Morris explores where to fish, what to bring, and why these waters continue to draw anglers to Central Oregon.

Founded in 1863 and later shaped by the sugar plantation era, Kīlauea remains one of Kauaʻi’s most inviting North Shore towns. Its historic stone buildings now house cafés, shops, and restaurants, while the surrounding coastline, gardens, and trails make it easy to spend a full day in and around town.

In “Destination: Kīlauea,” writer Krystal Kakimoto follows a day that begins with coffee and Morning Wraps at Kilauea Market + Cafe, then moves through local shops such as Hunter Gatherer, ocean views at Daniel K. Inouye Kīlauea Point Lighthouse, and the sculpture gardens of Na Aina Kai Botanical Gardens & Sculpture Park.

The day continues with a walk along the Wai Koa Loop Trail to the 1880s stone dam, then ends with dinner at Avalon Gastropub or Palate Kilauea.

Along Hawaiʻi Island’s northern coast, the valleys of Kohala hold some of the island’s most striking landscapes.

From Pololū, reached at the end of the road beyond Hāwī and Kapaʻau, to the deep valleys of Waipiʻo and Waimanu, this coastline is shaped by rain, ocean, cliffs, and centuries of cultural history. Each valley offers a different view into the island’s natural history, from black-sand shorelines and steep green walls to places still defined by farming, tradition, and access that requires time and care.

In “Verdant Valleys,” writer Andrew Walsh explores the natural beauty, history, and quiet power of these lush valleys.
