Discovering Oahu's Waterfall Secrets
I found a hidden waterfall swimhole near Waikiki Beach Hawaii Pt 3 - Cliff Jumping Heaven
USA

An Australian trekking to some closed and less known falls. As well as the mainstream ones.

1km return

A short hike to Kapena Falls on Nuʻuanu Stream.
This hike you drive into a church carpark, then there's a 2nd gate and carpark with a sign saying it was closed 5pm, but it was like 4pm and already locked. so you park before it and walk the 50 or so extra metres.
I found 2 small cascades on the way and I only saw one couple here,
it was late arvo on a overcast day.
The falls are small with a deep pool you can jump into from a cliff.
I then go upstream to find a noname waterfall marked on my map.
I go under a road bridge, then find a hidden old weir.
i discover some old steps in the bush beside some buildings.
I turned back as the buildings were very visible and i think i was in someones property.
I'm not even sure if the other waterfall existed, or whether it was the weir marked wrong, burning daylight i turned back.
