Haleakala National Park
Rising 10,023 feet (3,055 meters) above sea level, Haleakala is the world’s largest dormant volcano, the centerpiece of Maui’s Haleakala National Park.
This remarkable national park consists of two entirely different areas. The Summit District encompasses the multi-colored Haleakala Crater with its numerous cinder cones, while the Kipahulu District protects a section of volcanic coastline, tropical rain forest, archaeological sites and waterfalls.
Haleakala National Park is also well-known for its endemic species, from the unique silversword plants to various bird species, including honeycreepers and native geese.
