Hike directions:

Hike description:Puu Pia is a little-known trail in the back of Manoa Valley that follows an uphill route to a low peak overlooking the valley.  Follow East Manoa Road into the valley.  When the road forks, take the right fork, and park near the Chinese Cemetery.  Continue to walk into the valley on Alani Drive, which becomes narrower as signs for the trail appear.  Once on the trail, be sure not to take the right fork, which ascends to the top of the ridge that forms the valley wall.  From the lookout, hike back out the same way you came in.
