Aloha.

From the cold barren heights of a 10,000 ft (3055 m) volcanic peak to the warm Pacific water… Haleakala welcomes you.

Possibly this is your first visit and you know not what you seek? Here! A plant so rare it has not been described by science. Maybe you wish to hear the chants and stories of our forbearers old and new? There! A scarlet bird with long curved beak flits among strange trees. Maybe you come again to recapture the wonder? Sunrise, sunset, rain, and wind all take on a new light. Each day is a new voyage.

Your experience is uniquely yours and we encourage you to discover what Haleakala means to you.
The expedition of a thousand miles starts with one footstep. Whether you will soon be visiting the park, want to experience it virtually or are researching a topic or issue related to the park, we invite you to take that step and see for yourself what makes Haleakala National Park a place worth traveling to.
