Making memories everyone will cherish!

Haleakalā National Park

The Kīpahulu Visitor Center, Park Headquarters Visitor Center or Haleakalā Visitor Center provide free activity booklets for keiki (children) so they can explore the park and learn how plants and animals arrived to the islands, how Native Hawaiians lived and how volcanoes work. Take the booklet back to a visitor center after your visit and earn a Junior Ranger Badge (for keiki ages 7 to 12). nps.gov/hale/index.htm
