Haleakala National Park - Camping

Drive-up campgrounds

For those who need an overnight escape without a backpack trip, the park offers two car accessible campgrounds: Kipahulu and Hosmer Grove. Kipahulu campground is near sea level on the wet, east-side of the island in the Kipahulu area of the park, which is reached via the Hana Highway. Hosmer Grove is on the way to the summit, high on the windy slopes of Haleakala.
At Kipahulu and Hosmer Grove campground space is available on a first-come, first-served basis. No permit or reservation required or accepted.

A person may camp up to 3 nights per month in each of the Hosmer Grove and Kipahulu campgrounds.

Hosmer Grove campground has a limit of 50, and Kipahulu campground has a limit of 100 people, both with a 12-person group limit.

Three wilderness cabins are maintained by the National Park Service for visitor use by advanced reservation lottery. The wilderness cabins are accessible only by trail. To reach the cabins, you must hike a minimum of 3.7 miles (5.9km) to Holua, 5.5 miles (8.9km) to Kapalaoa, and 9.3 miles (15km) to Paliku.
