Hiking is an activity which is slowly gaining momentum in Maui. The trails are mostly done on the public lands and seldom on the private owned lands. Special permissions have to be asked for the latter. Most magnificent hikes are done through Haleakala Crater’s 30 miles of trial. Tourists can try out the 10 mile long Halemauu trial descending the 1400 feet to the crater floor or another 10 mile Sliding Sands Trial beginning from the Visitors Center and ends at Paliku Cabin. Most number of tourists opt for the Iao Needle in West Maui. There are huge numbers of hiking events going on though out Maui. Some of them are 2 miles Tableland Trial, Waihee Ridge Trial, Kahakuloa Valley Trial, Lahaina Pali Trial and much more.

Almost all these trials give a panoramic view of the entire Maui and could be stupendous. Most of the trails pass through burial caves, tall trees, thick forest areas and some may end at a nearby highway road. Both events of Zipline and Hiking can be considered as adventurous and most exciting parts of a tour in Maui. They offer a close view of the forests and breathtaking views of the Maui coastline.
