Wilderness Tent Sites
HI
Overview
There are two primitive wilderness tent areas which are accessible only by trail, Hōlua and Palikū. These sites are only reservable on recreation.gov. No first come-first serve sites are available.
Location
Getting there
Palikū and Hōlua Wilderness tent sites can be accessed from the Halemauʻu Trailhead (about 10 minutes from the entrance) or the Keoneheʻeheʻe Trailhead (about 30 minutes from the entrance).
Weather notes
Sites are located inside Haleakalā crater and involve a strenuous hike. Campers should prepare for hot, sunny, cold, wet, and windy conditions as weather can change rapidly. There is no shade or water on the crater floor, and temperatures can vary from 40-70 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and 30-50 degrees Fahrenheit at night, so pack plenty of water, sunscreen, and layers. If it is stormy, winds can exceed 80 miles per hour with temperatures dropping well below freezing.
