The park is located off of Stainback highway, approximately 1.5 miles west of Pana'ewa Zoo off Quarry Road. A free permit is required and can be obtained at the Division of Forestry and Wildlife in Hilo or in Waimea.[1] The trail network was created to provide bicyclists a challenging and technical single track trail. The trails are part of a multi-use area with hunters and hikers.

Lower Waiakea Mountain Bicycle Park is also known as Kulani Trails. The trails are relatively flat with tight turns.[2] It is recommended for advanced cyclists because of its technical difficulty.[3]
