A remarkable natural spectacle, accessible via an easy hike, partly along wooden plank paths. Direct access is prohibited.

This is a wonderful drive on an excellent road up to 3060 m altitude. We drove partly through clouds and short before the summit it cleared up and we got awarded with an outstanding view around the island.

This majestic waterfall cascades down a sheer lava rock wall for 400 feet, creating a boulder-strewn pool at its base. It is one of the tallest waterfalls on Maui and boasts breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. You will be greeted with mist, wind, and a vast jungle rock face that will leave a lasting impression. While you may be tempted to take a dip in the pool below, it's important to note that getting too close to the waterfall can be dangerous due to the risk of falling rocks from its 400-foot drop.

Split Rock is a large rock cut in half, and the Keonehe'ehe'e trail passes between the two parts. Here, the endangered Haleakala silverswords grow, and it's crucial to avoid touching them. These delicate 'ahinahina live for 3-90 years, producing a stunning flowering stalk before scattering their seeds. Park staff protect them by fencing out silversword-munching ungulates, removing non-native plants, and educating visitors to stay on trails and avoid stepping on fragile seedlings.

The Visitor Center is open daily, with outside accessible restrooms available 24 hours daily. Inside, there are panoramic orientation tables of the landscape and knowledgeable staff that can provide information on the history of Haleakalā, which means house of the sun, and its importance to the indigenous peoples. The view from here is stunning, and if you plan early, this is an excellent spot to watch the sunrise, which has been a visitor attraction since the late 1800s.

Nakalele Blowhole is located at the northern shoreline of the island of Maui. It's a powerful geologic feature where waves create a spouting geyser-like effect by forcing water through an underwater lave tube and shooting it high into the air.
