A
coconut grove grows here. Today, they provide shade for visitors traveling along
the trail, but had many more uses in the past. On either side of the trail you
can see the remains of stone walls. These walls were built by stacking stones
without mortar. Friction holds the stones in place. The walls were used to divide
property and serve as boundary markers. Can you find the heiau (temple) in the
panorama? Oma'o Heiau was once a temple, but all that remains today is a prayer
tower and some rubble.
