One of VITA Digital Productions' unique Virtual Walk Series (All photos on this page are actual still frames from the DVD.) 
This new DVD, the first in the series of Hawaii walks, has a 60 minute widescreen virtual walk
along the Hau'ula Loop Trail on the island of Oahu and is the perfect companion to a treadmill, Nordic Track, elliptical, or exercise bike. It is also the perfect gift for friends and family. 
Just place it in a DVD player, step onto your treadmill, and instantly you will be taking a scenic walk on one of the most beautiful islands in Hawaii! 
The Hau'ula Trail is a 2.5 mile loop not far from the Polynesian Cultural Center on Oahu and is one of the best hiking experiences on the island. 
Filmed in Widescreen with High Definition* television cameras and camera stabilization equipment, the camera seems to float as it transports you through beautiful scenery, varied topography and flora, and breathtaking views. 
This is not a traditional travel video. The television camera is constantly moving you forward, transporting the viewer through a trail with everchanging types of vegetation. 
You are "experiencing" a walk in Hawaii - known throughout the world for its Aloha Spirit, tranquility, and natural beauty. The 60 minute walk is accompanied by the natural sounds just as they were recorded in Stereo along the Hau'ula Trail on Oahu. Exercising has never been easier or more enjoyable!

A Description of the Walk on this DVD
The first part of your 60 minute walk begins just off the Maakua Homestead Road,
on Oahu's North Shore. You enter the trail through an opening in the forest with a carpet of ferns.
After crossing the rocky dry Waipililo Gulch,
the trail heads uphill through a grassy path.
Continuing on with your walk, you quickly adjust to the rocks
and gnarled roots of the ironwood trees lining the trail.
The needles from these trees often form a slippery bed for walking,
but create an eerie sense of magic as you walk.
Your walk continues as you next encounter a stand of stately Norfolk pines.
The trail offers the walker a mix of sun and shade.
Ferns with their green fronds dot the way.
The trail now follows the narrow ridgetop.
And from time to time along the trail, you stop to enjoy the amazing views -
either inland to misty volcanic Koolau Mountains or seaward towards the blue Pacific.
The plants you will pass along the trail are surprisingly varied.
And after the trail loops back on itself, your 2.5 mile walk ends where it began.
And as a BONUS CHAPTER you get....
"Hawaiian Seascapes," a bonus chapter with an 18-minute featurette
on the beaches of two beautiful Hawaiian islands, is also included on this DVD!
The featurette takes a look at the wide variety of coastlines
on both Oahu and Kauai.
Accompanied by a combination of lush, New Age and Light Classical Music,
the bonus chapter can be used as a cool-down from your exercise session.....
or, a beautiful stand-alone Hawaii travel video that can be enjoyed all by itself.
You'll take a leisurely look at some of the most scenic vistas in Hawaii.
And you may recognize some sites used in the movie musical, "South Pacific."
The 18 minute featurette ends with a montage of glorious sunsets from around the islands.
