The Haleakala Volcano hike offers amazing views and scenery resembling a red moonscape. While the trail itself is sandy and difficult, it affords unique views of the volcano.
For super views with the wind rushing through your hair, take on Maui's greatest bicycle adventure, the 38-mile Summit to the Sea ride, from the 10,023-foot summit of Mount Haleakala to the beach at Paia town.
Steal away to Hana, the little eastern hub of Maui. A former stronghold of ancient Hawaiian chiefs, or ali'i, Hana abounds with volcanic seaside cliffs, lush tropical forests, and remote beaches.

Maui Overview

Maui, also called the Valley Isle, is just a small dot in the vast Pacific Ocean, but it has the potential to offer visitors unforgettable experiences: floating weightless through rainbows of tropical fish, standing atop a 10,000-foot volcano watching the sunrise color the sky, listening to the raindrops in a bamboo forest.
