The canyon can be viewed from a number of lookouts along Waimea Canyon Drive. The road winds into the mountains and ends in the cool forests of Kokee State Park. Here you’ll find hiking trails. Waimea Canyon is the largest canyon in the Pacific and truly a dramatic sight to behold. The canyon measures 10 miles long, 1 mile wide, and more than 3,500-feet deep. It was carved thousands of years ago by rivers and floods that flowed from Mount Waialeales summit. The lines in the canyon walls depict different volcanic eruptions and lava flows that have occurred over the centuries.
