Check-in at Kahului Park and Ride
Begin your ascent from sea level through Maui’s Upcountry, where the scenery shifts from tropical lowlands to rolling pastures and volcanic slopes. Enjoy sweeping island and ocean views as you travel toward Haleakalā’s summit, rising to nearly 10,000 feet above sea level.
Make a stop at the Haleakalā Visitor Center to learn about the volcano’s unique ecosystem, geology, and cultural significance to Native Hawaiians. Browse exhibits that highlight the park’s natural history, ancient legends, and ongoing conservation efforts.
Explore a rare cloud forest featuring towering cedar, pine, spruce, and eucalyptus trees that have grown here for over a century. The cool mountain air, shifting mist, and native birdsong create a peaceful contrast to the stark volcanic summit above.
Follow the Pa Ka‘oao Trail to the crater’s edge, where ancient rock walls and shelters stand as silent reminders of Hawaiian history. From the overlook, take in stunning views of Haleakalā Crater’s vast expanse and the islands of Lana‘i and Kaho‘olawe in the distance.
Continue to Puʻu ʻUlaʻula, the highest point on Maui, to see the endemic Silversword plant and feel the cool alpine breeze. This area offers breathtaking 360-degree views that extend far beyond the crater, revealing Maui’s mountains, valleys, and ocean horizon.
Before descending the mountain, take a quick break to enjoy a light snack of fresh juicy island pineapple and delicious banana bread. Reflect on your summit experience as you travel back through the Upcountry’s changing landscapes, filled with the natural beauty of Haleakalā.
