Hanapepe Swinging Bridge

Hanapepe, Kauai, Hawai’i

When we were on Kauai last year, my sister and her husband found this awesome, quaint swinging bridge in Hanapepe.  It is a foot bridge that crosses over the Hanapepe River and links the old town of Hanapepe to the Hanapepe Valley.  It was originally built in the 1900’s as the only way for locals to cross the river.  In 1992, it was badly damaged by Hurricane Iniki and has since been restored and reinforced. It is used today by farmers and locals who need to cross the river, as well as, curious tourists.
