The best area for biking here is Mahaulepu. It’s two miles from the end of Po`ipu Road. Keep heading east on the dirt road. You’ll get to a main intersection, where you turn right. The trail passes sand dunes that were
formed over thousands of years, heading east past a heiau (temple). There are also fossil remains (look, but don’t touch) and archeological sites.

There are plenty of old dirt plantation roads in this area that are worth exploring on a mountain bike. The trails are fast and flat, making very easy and fun riding.

Regular road riding isn’t bad in the area either. You can ride the 10-mile Koloa Heritage Trail, which winds from Koloa to the Po`ipu Resort area. There is a bit of traffic, especially heading toward Spouting Horn. Just be aware and use common sense. Make sure you have a lock with you because you’re going to want to go for a swim.
