Maui has fabulous beaches. In fact the most beautiful beaches in Hawaii are found on Maui.
But for us Hawaii is best enjoyed at 2000 meters above sea level. Our playground this time is Haleakala National Park. “Haleakala” is Hawaiian for “House of the sun”. According to a local legend, the demigod Maui imprisoned the sun here in order to lengthen the day.
Haleakala is a dormant volcano. Visitors can walk inside the huge crater. The landscape in the crater is littered with cinder cones. There are enough trails to walk for at least three days.
Have a look at the pictures on Picasa.
