I have no idea how to link to the Nene article because I can't figure out what characters were used to title it. It would be great if somebody could fix that.
[edit] Kipahulu
The second section of the park is the Kipahulu section. Visitors cannot get to this section from the summit area; they must take a winding coastal road that travels around the windward coast of the island.
- This is not entirely accurate, as visitors could go the other way, around through Kaupo, and many probably do just that. I believe this would save a great deal of time, as well. --Viriditas 22:30, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)

- As a matter of fact, access by Route 31 from the west is hard because there is no regular road between Kaupo and the park entry. It's just a narrow unpaved road, and car rental companies forbid the use of that way. NPS advise visitors to use the Hana Highway, and then enter the Kipahulu section from the east. The trip is up to 3 hours but the road is a gift by itself (even if windy and narrow too :-) ) --Sam67fr 14:15, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
