Sunrise from Haleakala National Park is absolutely one of them!<\/p>\n<p>When you travel to Hawaii, it\u2019s not unusual to expect something extraordinary to happen on these majestic islands.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most spectacular things to do while on holiday is to watch the sunrise from Haleakala National Park.<\/p>\n<p>Waking up before the sun to climb a mountain may seem like a challenge to some, but the incredible views from the top of the Haleakala Summit can be life-changing!<\/p>\n<p>But what exactly can you expect on your sunrise hike?<\/p>\n<p>Much like planning an epic Hawaiian snorkeling trip, planning your summit hike at Haleakala doesn\u2019t have to be difficult!<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few things you can expect from this once in a lifetime Hawaiian tour to Haleakala National Park.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Haleakala_National_Park_and_Maui\"><\/span><strong>Haleakala National Park and Maui<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Covering an impressive area of about 33,300 acres, Haleakala is located in the heart of the Hawaiian Islands chain.<\/p>\n<p>The park, which was once part of the Hawaii National Park, is on the island of Maui.<\/p>\n<p>The volcano boasts a summit of over 10,000 feet above sea level and is one of the most visited spots on the island.<\/p>\n<p>However, the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/hale\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Haleakala National Park<\/a> is a place for conservation, a reservation for animals, and the home of species that are found nowhere else on the planet.<\/p>\n<p>To see the sun climb over the clouds, you have to book your time with an approved agency.<\/p>\n<p>This may mean having to reserve your tour slot far in advance.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for this is to lessen the impact on the natural surroundings as much as possible!<\/p>\n<p>There are plenty of ways to book your tour, and to get the most out of your sunrise experience.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not all just climbing the mountain!<\/p>\n<p>The <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tourmaui.com\/tours\/haleakala-sunrise-tour\/\" target=\"_blank\">Maui Volcano Sunrise Tour<\/a> allows for people to experience the epic views, see the breathtaking sunrise, and

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Haleakala summit is quite high.<\/p>\n<p>This means that it will be extremely chilly in the early morning hours, so pack accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>The steady hike up to the summit can be a bit challenging if you aren\u2019t generally an active person.<\/p>\n<p>There are a lot of options as far as transportation goes, so keep those in mind when booking your tour!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Food_and_Drink\"><\/span><strong>Food and Drink<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As always when

but also be a great eco-friendly purchase!<\/p>\n<p>Some tours provide a before dawn snack, as well as a hot breakfast.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve booked a tour with breakfast included, then you\u2019re
