Why go there?

Haleakala National Park is one of the most unique and beautiful places on Earth. Situated on the Hawaiian island of Maui, Haleakala is home to a dormant volcano, Haleakala, as well as endangered Hawaiian geese. The Leleiwi and Kalahaku overlooks offer stunning views of the West Maui Mountains, and the rugged trails in the Summit District pass by cinder cones and lava flows. In the coastal area of Kīpahulu, visitors can find the Pools of Ohe’o, a series of freshwater pools and waterfalls that are simply breathtaking. Haleakala National Park is a must-see for anyone lucky enough to visit Maui.
