Haleakala Highway to Heaven

The road that runs to the 10,000 foot summit of the Haleakala volcano passes through a number of climatic zones.

Crisscrossing up the mountainside, the "Highway to Heaven" eventually arrives at the world's most breathtaking parking lot.

On a clear day one can see the Big Island in the distance while on cloudy days, visitors are blessed with a bird's eye view of the cloud tops.
