This minimally developed campground down Hilina Pali Rd has eight walk-in sites tucked among the ohia. Wheelchair accessible sites are closer to parking, but less private. Facilities include pit toilets and picnic tables, but no water. Campfires and pets prohibited (the latter to protect the nene – native Hawaiian goose).
