Hōlua Campground, Backcountry campground in Haleakalā National Park, Hawaii
Located at an elevation of 6,940 feet, Hōlua Campground features individual tent sites and a cabin within a volcanic landscape surrounded by native shrubland.
The campground stands near Ko'olau Gap, a significant geological formation created through centuries of volcanic activity that shaped the Haleakalā crater landscape.
Native Hawaiian plant species grow throughout the campground area, while the endangered Nene, Hawaii's state bird, frequently visits the surrounding grounds.
Visitors must obtain permits from the visitor center, bring water filtration systems, and prepare for temperatures that can drop below 40 degrees Fahrenheit at night.
The campground provides access to some of Earth's most silent natural locations, offering exceptional opportunities for astronomical observation and stargazing experiences.
