QUICK FACTS  
   
Activities: Hiking, hunting Directions: From Kahului, take Hana Highway 36 east a couple of miles, and then make a right onto Haleakala Highway 37. You will then drive about 14 miles. At about 7 ½ miles you’ll see a left turnoff onto the northern end of Highway 377. Don’t turn left here (this takes you to Haleakala Crater).

Instead, continue driving another 6 miles and make a left turn onto the southern end of Highway 377. On Highway 377 drive a little over ¼ mile, then make a right turn onto Waipoli Road.

There are several signs warning you to watch out for cattle. The first 6 miles of Waipoli Road is paved road, and the last 4 miles is unpaved, but very drivable (you won’t need a four wheel drive) with some really great views of West Maui Mountain and the valley in-between.

Near the end of 10 miles, take the right fork, and you will end up in a parking lot. Park your vehicle and walk a short distance back up the road to the Redwood Trail. Have fun!
