#Haleakala is a massive shield volcano that forms more than 75% of Maui. Known as the “House of the Sun”, it features a vast summit crater about 7 miles wide and 2,600 feet deep, dotted with cinder cones and colorful volcanic rock. The national park protects unique ecosystems, including rare native plants like the silversword and endangered species such as the nēnē goose. Visitors often go for sunrise or sunset views, where the high elevation offers sweeping panoramas above the clouds. | Ali'i R
