Here's what Trippy members say about Black Rock:

"We love Maui and include it on every visit to the islands! I hope you will love it too! One of the neatest hikes we've ever done is the Bamboo forest hike across the street from the Pools at Ohe'o which is about 5-7 miles past Hana. We'd leave around 8am from Kaanapali (where we usually stay) and get to the parking lot for the 7 sacred pools around 9:30-9:45. Parking fee is nominal and bathrooms are right there. After you take about 30-45 minutes to watch the divers jump off the bridge into one of the larger pools, you might want a dip yourself in the (very) cool water or wait until you get back from your hike. Also, where the water meets the ocean is a small, beautiful black sand beach. So you cross the street and pick up the trailhead to do the Bamboo forest hike. It's pretty well marked and a nice hike. About 2/3 of the way into the hike you walk through a bamboo forest and when the wind moves the bamboo it sounds wonderful. Take a camera with video recording capability to catch the 'bamboo wind chime' sounds, very cool. About 10 minutes after the bamboo forest you're rewarded coming up to a very high waterfall, which many people take a dip under. This hike is one of many that we've taken on Maui but it is our favorite due to the added locations you see to and from the hike (Hana, 7 sacred pools, road to Hana, etc.) One thing that is important: take mosquito spray as they are bad on this hike and wear something that you can get wet or bring a swimsuit! While you're out that way, if you drive a couple miles down the road, you will come to a small church where Charles Lindbergh is buried. The church is super quaint and very picturesque but the neat thing is that behind the church is a very small picnic area with a couple of tables and a FANTASTIC overlook of the ocean toward the east. We usually end up here after the hike with a picnic lunch. Finding the entrance to the church is a bit tricky but worth it if you are adventurous. Here is a link that describe is and how to get there: ."  See More
