Kipahulu MM 42 Bamboo Forest 8 Haleakala National Park {Oheo Gulch} 7 Waianapanapa MM 32 6 You'll have two choices for the drive home when leaving Hana: either go back the way you came, or keep going towards the south side of the island. If you continue past Oheo Gulch, you'll see the Kaupo Store, Huakini Bay (with its unusual bluish grey rocks) and the Pokowai Sea Arch. This route is not necessarily a faster way back, but it takes you through Ulupalakua, past MauiWine's vineyard, and down the slopes of Haleakala (see our Upcountry section on page 47). If it's been raining, or is aer 3:00pm, we don't suggest this road, as there are high oceanside cliffs and some sections that are unpaved and only one lane. Also, many car rental companies prohibit driving in this area (check your rental agreement). Estimated time to Central Maui: 4 hours. The Trip Back! >> Located just above the Oheo Gulch, this is one of the best hikes on Maui. It's four miles round trip, and reaches an elevation of 650 . Plan on spending about two hours or longer, depending on how much you rest and sightsee. Walk through an amazing bamboo forest ending at the 400' breathtaking Waimoku Falls for an awe inspiring experience.
