Pololu Valley Lookout, Hawai'i (Big Island)

A visit to Pololu Valley is probably one of the most enjoyable drives on the island. It's an experience that can be described as interesting and pleasurable. To get to Pololu, one must drive through the small town of Hawi, past the King Kamehameha statue in Kapaau and continue down through single-lane bridges, metal-roofed plantation-style homes, and vistas that include the eastern slope of Haleakala on Maui on a clear day. The drive proceeds past forested land and tropical landscapes. The jaw-dropping view appears quite unexpectedly when the road starts its descent into the valley. Truly unforgettable.
