Apresentação geral
Haleakala and Upcountry Maui
Volcanic crater above the clouds and fresh countryside on the slopes of Maui.
To understand what Haleakala and Upcountry Maui are, you have to look at Haleakala summit, Slide Sands Trail and Hosmer's Grove. These places give us a view of a territory marked by island landscapes, volcanic landscapes, mountain reliefs and natural spaces and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.

At the top of the Haleakalā, Maui turns into a landscape of crater, red slag and clouds that sometimes pass under the feet. Sunrise attracts a lot of people, but the end of the day also reveals the mineral colors of the volcano and the surprising cold of the altitude.
Nature and panorama
Sliding Sands Trail
Sliding Sands Trail descends into the crater of Haleakalā through ash slopes, coloured cones and almost lunar silence. Even partially travelled, the path makes the volcano feel large; altitude, sun and uphill demand a more serious approach than a coastal hike.
Place indismissible
Hosmer's Grove
Hosmer's Grove The open slopes of the Haleakalā are divided into the trees planted and the denser vegetation, which are home to many endemic birds. Ornithologists are looking for the birds, such as the
