What are the two main ways to explore Haleakala National Park?
- There are two very different ways to see Haleakala National Park on Maui.
- On the coast, you can explore the waterfalls and pools at Ohe'o Gulch, also called the Seven Sacred Pools.
-
How much time should I allocate for visiting the park?
- Whether you're visiting the crater at 10,000 feet or driving to the coastal part of Haleakala on East Maui, you'll need to allocate a full day to complete either trip.
-
Can I visit both the summit and the coast in one day?
- No, there is no direct road from the summit to East Maui, so you won't be able to squeeze both trips into one day.
-
Are both areas of Haleakala National Park worth visiting?
- Yes! Both areas of the park are very beautiful and well worth a visit, but both drives are quite strenuous.
-
Which drive is more challenging?
- The Road to Hana, with its one-way bridges and countless curves, is the more challenging of the two.
-
What should I do if I want to see both the summit and the coastal area?
- If you want to see the summit as well as the coastal part of the park, plan on taking two separate trips.
