 | Polipoli SpringState Recreation Area - Hawaiʻi |
Polipoli Spring State Recreation Area is on the island of Maui about ten miles from Kula up the slope of Haleakalā. Located at about 6,200 feet (1,900 m) above sea level, the park extends through the fog belt of the mountain forests. The high-elevation climate can be cold, with nighttime temperatures below freezing. Very tall, non-native trees dominate the landscape, especially at higher elevations
There are four main trails. The Haleakalā Ridge Trail enters the recreation area. It features scrub, grassland, and forest habitat with cinder substrates. The adjacent Plum Trail is planted with plum and other trees. The Polipoli Trail, which starts within the recreation area, features various conifers. The Redwood Trail is used for mountain biking. Visitors can view redwoods and an old ranger's cabin.
