Kalaupapa Lookout
A lookout point at the top of the world highest sea cliffs (nearly 3000 feet) looking down onto the isolated Kalaupapa Peninsula far below. The view is staggering and gives kids a sense of scale that is hard to find elsewhere. The peninsula was the site of the famous Hansen disease (leprosy) settlement led by Father Damien. The lookout is accessible from Palaau State Park and requires just a short walk from the parking lot. The mule ride and hiking trail down to the peninsula are for those 16 and older.
