Haleakala National Park

From Kahului, follow SRs 36, 37, 377 and 378 sequentially to the park headquarters on SR 378. The 27-mile drive through plantations and ranch land (watch for stray cattle) reaches an elevation of 7,000 feet at the headquarters.

Called the "House of the Sun," the park encompasses the summit of Haleakala, Kipahulu Valley and the 'Ohe'o Area near Hana. Haleakala--considered active yet not currently erupting--is on the upper slopes and makes up all of east Maui. Although many refer to the feature at the top of Haleakala as a "crater," it is actually a valley formed by erosion. The reddish hues of cinder cones and black lava flows characterize the scenic landscape.
Among the park's wildlife is the rare nene (Hawaiian goose), which was reintroduced to the island in 1962 and might be seen around the eastern section of the erosional valley and near park headquarters. Native plants include the unusual silversword.
Visibility varies during the day but is sometimes best before mid-morning, when the valley usually is free of clouds, and in the late afternoon and evening. Cloudy conditions prevail during midday but frequently improve for short periods, permitting at least partial views of the valley. Mornings are best for viewing the neighboring islands and West Maui. Weather permitting, afternoons offer the best conditions for photographing the area.

Drivers returning downhill from the summit should brake carefully, drive in low gear to prevent brake failure and stay within speed limits to avoid accidents.
Weather changes rapidly at high elevations on Haleakala. Temperatures usually range between 35 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit, but can be below freezing at any time of the year when the wind chill factor is taken into account. Intense sunlight, thick clouds, heavy rain and high winds are possible daily. Note: Gasoline and food are not available. Rental car contracts prohibit driving beyond the Pools of 'Ohe'o, also referred to as the Seven Sacred Pools. Allow 3 hours minimum. Phone (808) 877-5111 for the Maui weather forecast.
