HALEAKALĀ VOLCANO & DOWNHILL BIKE TOUR
Love nature, scenic landscapes, panoramic views and adventure? How about exploring the summit of Haleakalā volcano with an expert guide and then biking down the mountain through sprawling ranchlands? This tour goes up into Haleakalā National Park at almost 10,000ʻ and then descend from 6500ʻ on a bike ride back to Haiku on the lush northern side of the island. The bike ride is on your own (unguided) so you can descend at your own pace and stop along the way as you please.
This tour starts with a van tour to Haleakalā's summit, the highest point on all of Maui, while accompanied by an experienced guide. Take in all this beautiful park has to offer. From there we make our way to the bikes, just outside the park. Riding down the slopes of Haleakalā on this tour is an epic adventure that winds its way through upcountry Maui’s ranch lands. We continue on the van sightseeing tour through Kula and Makawao towns making stops for food and shopping.

Haleakalā National Park Sightseeing & Biking Tour Features
Haleakalā National Park
After arriving at the towering Haleakalā's summit, our expert guide will lead you through a true national treasure, Haleakalā National park. We’ll see and learn about exotic and rare endangered species like the ʻĀhinahina plant (AKA Silversword which blooms once every few decades before dying) and the Nene Goose, both of which have been fighting their way back from being among the last 100 survivors of their species. Take in scenic landscapes and breathtaking views from high atop a sleeping volcano where you’ll truly get in touch with Maui’s upcountry beauty.
Downhill Bike Ride
This is a once-in-a-lifetime, bucket-list experience that you definitely want to Instagram and share with your friends. Biking down almost miles of roadways on the slopes of Haleakalā from 6500ʻ elevation after visiting the summit at 10,000ʻ makes you realize how big this sacred mountain is. We provide everything to make you as safe and as comfortable as possible, wind, rain or shine.
Safety Gear Included
Biking down new trails is incredibly fun, but it is also important to take some precautions. We are here to help with this too! We will provide you with necessary safety gear and instructions where necessary to ensure you have everything you need to have a fun and safe time exploring this beautiful location with us.
