HALEAKALA NATIONAL PARK

Located on the Hawaiian island of Maui. It’s home to the dormant Haleakalā Volcano and endangered Hawaiian geese. 
 
The Haleakala Crater is one of the most popular tourist destinations on Maui, and for a good reason – the views are amazing! The Leleiwi and Kalahaku overlooks on the steep Crater Road have views across the West Maui Mountains. Rugged trails in the Summit District pass cinder cones and lava flows. The drive up to the main overlook is definitely worth it!
 
There is more though, The Hana Highway is a 64.4-mile-long stretch that hugs the coastline of Maui which connects Kahului to the town of Hana in east Maui. There you can see the coastal area of Kīpahulu and the Pools of Ohe’o, freshwater pools and waterfalls set amid the second most famous bamboo forest in the world.
 
Come Join us! Feel free to bring snacks, watch the presentation, explore its history, people, and soak up this unique landscape. There will be a discussion to follow. Download the flyer (PDF)
