The stunning Puu o Kila Lookout offers breathtaking views of the magnificent Kalalau Valley, Alakai Swamp, and of Mt. Waialeale. The latter is known to be the wettest place on planet earth.

This Lookout is located at an elevation of nearly 4176 ft (1273 m) and is known for providing some of the best views in the Pacific. It is situated is in the Kalalau Valley, at the end of the road in the Kokee State Park. It is at this point that you can view the ocean and the sky blend together and clouds roll in and out of the spectacular valley.
