Fallen trees force close portion of Malaekahana park

A portion of Malaekahana State Recreational Area is closed because of a hazard caused by fallen trees.

Camping at the Kahuku section will not be allowed, according to the Department of Land and Natural Resources, because of unsafe conditions.

Campers vacating the Kahuku section of the park will have the option to move to the adjacent Malaekahana State Recreation Area at Kalanai Point section – at no additional charge. 

The state will work with an arborist to assess which trees, if any, may warrant trimming or removal. 

The Kalanai Point section will continue to be available for camping. Permits may be obtained via the Hawaii State Parks Website: hawaiistateparks.org  Malaekahana Kalanai Point section is 0.6 miles north and Kahuku section is 1 mile north of Laie.
