Red Road Wall Art Prints
The Kapoho Kalapana Road, also known as the Red Road, travels 15 miles along the coastline of the lower Puna district on the Big Island. It is one of the most scenic roads in the state of Hawaii. Yet only a few visitors have discovered it. Located in a remote and sparsely populated area, this road takes you through some of the most spectacular scenery reminiscent of the old Hawaii of yesteryear. It is used to be paved with red cinder gravels, now black asphalt, but local residents still affectionately call it the Red Road. The road follows the rugged coastline, sometime curves so close to the edge of the cliff that you could see the crashing waves below, sometime burrows through a dense tree tunnel where dangling jungle vines would touch the roof of your car! The road takes you through rocky lava fields, lush coconut groves, tropical rainforests, old plantations, black sand beaches, peaceful ocean side parks, and a few quaint residential neighborhoods. This winding one-lane road is barely wide enough for cars to pass each other. Look for colorful patches of wild impatiens along the roadside and whimsical wind-sculpted trees that remind you of a Tolkien fantasy novel.
