Hilo is famous for its lush scenery, plentiful rain, beautiful orchids, and colorful rainbow's, all of which collide, if conditions are right, at the magnificent Rainbow Falls.  As the thundering Wailuku River cascades into the Wailuku gulch in an impressive display of Mother Nature’s power, the resulting mist produces beautiful rainbows in the morning sun, rendering a great spot to snap that special photo.  Accessed by a short drive from the resort, turn left from Kamehameha Avenue onto Waianuenue Avenue and keep right when the road forks and look for the park on your right hand side.
