10 Best Adventures in Maui: Hikes, Snorkeling & More | Condé Nast Traveler

"Get your cameras ready: Kuka'emoku—or, the Iao Needle—is one of Maui's most-photographed spots. An erosional feature that rises 1,200 feet from the valley floor, the Needle is a place of deep historic and spiritual significance for Hawaiians: the site of the battle of Kepaniwai, where Hawaiian King Kamehameha the First conquered the Maui army in 1790. Today, it's a State Park with great views, picnic spots, and plenty of walking and biking trails for all ability levels." - Todd Plummer
