Climbing Waimea Canyon Drive & Kokee Road on Kaua'i unveils the breathtaking 'Grand Canyon of the Pacific' as you ascend from near sea level at Waimea town into the cooler, higher elevations of Koke'e State Park. You'll journey approximately 18-20 miles, gaining over 4,000ft through stunningly diverse scenery – from dry coastal landscapes to lush forests – with incredible canyon views unfolding at numerous lookouts along the winding route, culminating near 4,200 ft elevation. This climb demands endurance with its mostly steady and continuous gradients averaging around 4-5%, though some sections might reach 6-8%.
