Maui Nui Forest Users

Road repair work being done by contractors should be completed by April 3rd, 2023.  Kula Forest Reserve and access to Polipoli State Recreation Area were closed after historic storms in December 2021 washed out multiple portions of the road and brought down hundreds of trees across the road and trails.  Division of Forestry and Wildlife crews worked to clear downfalls, but roadwork had to be done by contractors.  Updates will be posted here.

4/3/2023 Update: Kula Forest Reserve and access to Polipoli State Recreation Area is now restored. As of April 3, 2023, exceptions include the Waiakoa Loop Trail and #5 access road. Please call the Maui Branch Office of Forestry & Wildlife for updates on the loop trail and access road.
