Activity itinerary

Pukalani
  • 15m
Make a quick stop here for some snacks and water. There is no food once you’re in the park.
Makawao
  • 1h
Just before Haleakala is a charming little town named Makawao. Makawao is dubbed the biggest little town in Upcountry Maui and has its roots in the cattle industry. In recent years, Makawao has evolved into a charming art town where you will find galleries and workshops of local artists, many with hawaii-inspired themes, as well as lots of tasty local food.
Hosmer's Grove
  • 30m
Hosmer Grove is located just outside the national park entrance at an elevation of 6,800 feet. Here you will see trees from all around the world, including: juniper and fir from North America cedar and seigi pine from Japan and eucalyptus trees from Australia This is a short, relaxing, half-mile loop trail. It’s a great spot to stop and breathe in the fresh air from all the foliage around you. It’s also a completely different landscape from the ones you’ll see later in the tour.
Halemauu Trail
  • 1h
This 8-mile trek is actually rated hard, but we suggest you just hike the first mile, then turn around the way you came. You’ll still get a great view of a crater rim in the condensed version and you'll have more time for the rest of the activities on this tour!
Leleuvia Island
  • 15m
Head in the clouds? It will be at this overlook. Most visitors pass up Leleiwi Overlook but in our opinion, it’s actually one the best on the mountain! At the lookout, watch as clouds roll by. In one moment, the fog will be so dense you can barely see the terrain around you, in the next, it will clear giving you a panoramic view of the crater. It’s truly a sight to behold!
Kalahaku Overlook
  • 15m
At this overlook, you’ll see the crater floor from a completely different perspective. It’s definitely worth a stop!
Pā Ka'oao Trailhead
  • 30m
This mini hike starts at the visitor centre and takes you to an overlook with a great view of the crater. The walk is just .5 miles, and it’s well worth it. If you’re thinking to yourself, “another overlook?” Yes, but we promise -- this one has great views! Pro tip! The nearby visitor centre is a great spot to use the bathroom.
Sliding Sands Trail
  • 30m
As you make your way back from the summit, you can return to the visitor centre car park to hike Sliding Sands Trail. It is a rigorous 11-mile hike, but we recommend you just hike to the first switchback or until you get tired. You don’t need to travel far to see the expansive view of the massive crater open up before you! When you are ready to return, just retrace your steps back the same way you came. If you plan on doing the whole hike, or a large portion of it, remember to bring water. The area isn’t shaded and you’ll be walking for a long time.
Pu'u Ola' Cinder Cone Trail( Earthquake Hill or Red Hill)
  • 20m
About a minute past the visitor centre at the end of the road, you’ll find an overlook called Pu‘u‘ula‘ula or Red Hill. This is the actual summit of Mount Haleakala at 10,023 feet above sea level. From here, you can watch as the sun sets for the night into the arid, mars-like landscape of Haleakala.
