Once you get to the Kapa‘a Stream you can head off trail to the upper Ho‘opi‘i Falls by walking along the water like these hikers in the photo. To stay on the actual trail, take the path up and to the right.

When you see the lower waterfall about a mile into the trail, the trail junction is not far ahead. It is easy to miss, and it doesn't look very tracked out.

Upper Ho‘opi‘i Falls has the cliff diving area. The lower falls do not have any jumps.

The tropical birds are amazing here, and they make the most beautiful music.
