HALEAKALA & HAWAII VOLCANOES


They vibrate with stories of ancient and modern culture. The national parks of Hawaii protect the sacred bond between the land and its people, paying tribute to local traditions


and beliefs naturally spiritual. They first came into existence in 1916 when President Woodrow Wilson designated Hawaii Volcanoes National Park as the country’s 13th national park. Part tropical masterpiece, part geologic wonderland, this Big Island landmark, home to the goddess Pele, is a hotbed of live-footage activity with a volcanic ecosystem that defies comparison. Giant lava tubes take visitors through cooled molten tunnels to surreal landscapes. Rainforests ring craters with trails lush with wildlife. On Maui, the House of the Sun, Haleakala, forms the sacred centerpiece of the island’s national park, harboring more species of endangered wildlife than most other national parks. Climb above the clouds at sunrise or sunset and descend through fields of lavender that evoke the serenity of paradise and the spirit of Aloha.
