I'll be adding more links as I find them.

Hawaii State Parks Department page about the hike. There are links to other hikes in State Parks on Oahu, and links to lists for other islands. You can download the Diamond Head Park brochure from here and the next link.

Hawaii State Parks Department page about the Park itself. There are also links for other parks on Oahu, and other islands.

If there are any announcements about any of the State Parks including Diamond Head they're listed on the Park Announcements page as far in advance as possible. That includes upcoming projects and closures.

The Diamond Head Final Master Plan (79.5MB PDF file) or the shorter and more readable Master Plan Summary (4.6MB PDF file) are linked to on the Parks Plans and Reports page. The summary includes drawings showing possible future designs.

This January 1, 2008 article from Around Hawaii has information and photos of the park and trail.

The League of Women Voters have a copy of the February 1969 newsletter requesting protection for Diamond Head Crater.

A DNLR news release and fact sheet from April 19, 2000.

Some history of Diamond Head from WorldWeb.Com.

A USGS page about the Hawaiian Islands with a section on Diamond Head.

A Honolulu Star Bulletin article from December 25, 1999 about the Diamond Head State Monument Master Plan.

For a guided tour of the trail you can contact Oahu Nature Tours. As far as I know they're the only ones offering guided tours. I've passed their groups on the trail numerous times and the guides are always friendly. When I've overheard bits of their talks they sound interesting.
