Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park in Kona reports the Hale Hookipa Visitor Contact Station, its parking lot and the main trail from Hale Hookipa to the Honokhau shoreline will be closed Wednesday morning between 6-11 a.m..

The reason, park officials said in a statement, is to provide public safety during the removal of invasive, non-native vegetation by helicopter.
