Kapalua Village Trails are a network of trails on the former village golf course.

The Lake Loop Trail follows old cart paths for the most part, but don't let this description deceive you, this trail passes though some wonderful terrain with stunning views. Yes it is true that by most trail standards, (particularly if your used to rugged North Vancouver trails as I am). this is luxury hiking on mostly paved paths. However, anyone who gets chance to do this hike will not be disappointed.

Park at the Kapalua Aventure Center and start your hike by walking down through the start of the golf course.
