Fantastic recommendation, Matt! The Kaupo Trail is amazing. The reason I didn’t include it, though, is that part of it is not in Haleakala National Park (it does not technically start in the park’s Kipahulu portion.)

There’s the Kaupo Trail, which takes you right up to the crater of Haleakala, where you can then take the Sliding Sands Trail to the summit. Not many people do this hike due to the length and difficulty. Think of it as Hawaii’s version of Cactus to Clouds. Of course, you would also need to either hike all the way back down or arrange transportation back to Kipahulu.
