The surrounding gorge is lush with dense, nonnative tropical rainforest, adding to the falls' beauty. Notably, the area around the falls is rich with nonnative wild ginger and monstera plants. Rainbow Falls gets its name from the stunning rainbows that can often be seen in the waterfall's mist on sunny mornings around 10 am. The falls flow over a natural lava cave, which is said to be the mythological home of Hina, an ancient Hawaiian goddess, adding a layer of cultural significance to the natural beauty of the site.

Local folklore is rich with tales of the area, including the story of a stone called Pōhaku a Pele that, when struck by a branch of lehua ʻāpane, is said to call the sky to darken and rain to fall. The park is also home to the ʻoʻopu ʻalamoʻo, an endemic Hawaiian species of goby fish known for its remarkable ability to climb the wet rocks adjacent to the waterfall using a suction disk on their bellies to reach the stream above for spawning.
