Manoa Falls
A path at the entrance to the Lyon Arboretum leads 1.5mi/2.4km to the Manoa Falls where bathing is permitted.
Puu Ualakaa State Wayside
Views here are similar to those from Punchbowl, but the skyline of Honolulu from here includes Punchbowl in the foreground. The views of Waikiki and Diamond Head are slightly closer than those from Punchbowl. While both views are worthwhile, those pressed for time will probably gain more meaning from Punchbowl.
