The Nounou West Trail will lead you up the mountain along a mostly shaded and cool trail. The trail leads through a grove of Norfolk and Cook Pines that were planted in the 1930's by the Civilian Conservation Corps. At about 1/4 mile the trail meets up with the Nounou-Kuamoo Trail. Stay to the left and follow the trail up the mountain on the wide path between the pines. You will be rewarded with amazing sweeping views of the Kauai's interior and coastal views. The trail head for the hike is right along Kamalu Road, near a grassy field between mile marker 2 and 3. Walk through the metal gate marked with a forestry right-of-way. Hiking Trails
