Fodor's Review:

Tucked away on the slopes of Mt. Kamakou, Molokai's highest peak, the 2,774-acre preserve is a dazzling wonderland full of wet ohia (hardwood trees of the myrtle family, with red blossoms called lehua flowers) forests, rare bogs, and native trees and wildlife. Guided hikes, limited to eight people, are held one Saturday each month; reserve well in advance. You can visit the park without a tour, but you need a good four-wheel-drive vehicle (which is hard to find on the island), and the Nature Conservancy requests that you sign in at the office and get directions first.

  • Cost: Free; donation for guided hike, $10 members, $25 nonmembers, includes 1-yr membership
