What is the best way to get from the Hilton Village to the beginning of the trail without a car? Don't mind a bit of a walk before the trail. Thanks

14 min 3.2 miles or 5.5km via Kalakaua Ave and Monsarrat Ave. It is a drive not walk. All kinds of transport options there. Check local bus services. The name of the local buses are 'TheBus" , they go everywhere, costs about $2 to ride anywhere.
