Final Journey: Stairway to Heaven

UPDATE! THE TRAIL IS CLOSED NOW!

Frequently referred to as "Middle Ridge" or "Backside to Stairway," this trail is gaining popularity as the main alternative path to the well-known and debated Haiku Stairs, also known as the "Stairway to Heaven."
The Honolulu City Council voted unanimously to remove the stairs back in 2021. The Friends of Haiku Stairs, a nonprofit organization formed to protect and maintain the stairs, sued Honolulu for violating environmental laws, saying it relied on an "outdated, and legally irrelevant" environmental impact statement from 2019.
Please hike at your own risk. This is not an official trail also make sure to bring plenty of hydration. For many this is a 6-9h roundtrip.
