Highlights
  • 10600 Hana Hwy - Embark on an adventure through the lush private canyon of a rainforest, navigating down cliffs and cascades with a secure rope system. Trek across stream-fed paths and natural terrain, and take a dip in the pristine freshwater basins. Come rain or shine, the journey into the rainforest is a constant. The weather and waterfalls are dynamic natural elements that can shift quickly without notice. In the event of flooding from rainfall, when waterfalls become thunderous or engorged, and the valley buzzes with intense or rapid water movement, rappelling directly down the waterfalls may not be safe. On such occasions, we opt for 40- to 115-foot descents from the jungle’s edge, maintaining a safe distance from the active waterways. Be aware that rainfall is a daily occurrence in the rainforest.

Additional Information

Envision yourself descending waterfalls in a secluded valley in the renowned Road to Hana rainforest. Rappelling, a widely enjoyed adventure and gravity sport, involves descending from a steep incline or wall using secure ropes. With direction and supervision from skilled instructors, you’ll utilize professional gear to venture into the wild of Maui, a location portrayed in the film, Jurassic Park. This activity is perfect for active families, couples, groups, and individual adventurers who enjoy thrilling outdoor activities. Participants need to be at least 10 years old, weigh between 70 and 250 lbs., and have a waist size from 22 to 48 inches. All equipment, including shoes, is provided. Regardless of the weather, we venture to the rainforest. Quick changes can occur with naturally forming waterfalls, especially during precipitation. In the scenario where streams are swollen due to heavy rain and the waterfalls become intense or roaring, we shift to rappelling 40- to 115-foot descents from jungle cliffs, maintaining a safe distance from the waterflow.

Fantastic experience with Rappel Maui! - What a FUN way to break up the Road to Hana! We highly recommend Rappel Maui! This trip took our time on the Road to Hana to the next level. We spent ~2.5 hours rappeling with Rappel Maui, including two BEAUTIFUL waterfall rappels that ended with swimming in the waterfall pools. Such a great way to experience the nature and natural beauty of Road to Hana. And our instructors were absolutely fantastic! Noami & Jackson kept us safe, kept us believing that yes we COULD rappel :) (amazing cheerleaders!), were very knowledgeable and both wonderful individuals that our family enjoyed spending time with during our day. This was the perfect adventure for our family (including our 13 year old daughter) and Naomi & Jackson made the experience an incredible one that we will never forget!

Best thing to do on Maui! - One of the coolest things we’ve ever done! Naiome and Jackson were both amazing and really made this experience for us. My wife was a little nervous and Naiome walked her through every step to make this a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we got to conquer together!

Naomi and Shauna were... - Naomi and Shauna were fantastic guides on our waterfall rappel adventures! They were super fun and kept us safe. Our group was smaller which was nice, we got to know a bit more about each of the girls. I would definitely do this again and recommend to anyone in the Maui area looking for a thrill on land :)

Yaaaaaaasssss. Do it!! - Incredible experience that we will talk about for years. Seriously, I don’t leave reviews but you don’t want to miss this experience. Naomi and Shauna were incredible guides and teachers (for their first day lol). I laughed, I cried, it was better than “Cats”. Seriously people. Do this.
