Waikamoi Preserve (Nature Conservancy) Details

The Waikamoi Preserve isn't part of Haleakala National Park; rather, it is the protected property of the [Nature Conservancy](http://www.nature.org/ourinitiatives/regions/northamerica/unitedstates/hawaii/placesweprotect/waikamoi.xml), but Haleakala park rangers nevertheless lead regular guided hikes into this high-elevation rainforest and alpine shrubland. The hikes take place on Mondays and Thursdays; check the park calendar for information. The 8,951-acre preserve on Haleakala's windward slope provides critical sanctuary for Maui's native wildlife and plants. The Nature Conservancy also runs guided hikes into the preserve every other weekend; call 808-572-7849 for details.
