On the Ground
For those who prefer to just go cruising down the slopes and switchbacks of the volcano, our Haleakala Express tour is the best bet. Guests begin their bike ride at 6,500 ft. elevation just outside of the national park entrance and ride 15 miles to the North Shore town of Haiku.

Accessible only by foot, our 6 - 7 hour Waimea Canyon & Nāpali Cliff Top Hike is designed to give you amazing views thousands of feet above the ocean! While these hikes can be muddy, you will be amply rewarded for your effort with sweeping views of Waimea Canyon and the most dramatic middle sections of the famous 17-mile-long Nāpali Coast – from unique vantage points that can only be accessed from the cliff top ridges of Kōkeʻe State Park.
Our mission -"sharing Kauaʻi’s beauty with aloha”- was forged in love and respect for this island’s abundant mana (life energy). Our local guides take you to some of their favorite spots, the places they enjoy exploring in their free time. We hope to inspire understanding, respect, and reverence for these sacred, often fragile, environments.
The Haleakala Day Journey has been one of the most popular bike tours offered at Mountain Riders for over 30 years. The tour begins at the entrance of Haleakala National Park and ends where the bike ride concludes in Paia Town, on the North Shore of the island! Our tours are conducted by our experienced guides, who will point out historic sites along the journey and offer unforgettable photo ops for your group.
Check-in - 7:30am at the Mountain Riders office location
Return - 11:30-12:00pm back to the Mountain Riders office location (times will vary depending upon the season).
A more affordable option to our often sold out sunrise tour, the Pre-Dawn tour offers the same beautiful colors of the sunrise from the outside of Haleakala National Park. You will enjoy the same 26 mile (42 km) bicycle tour from the 6,500' all the way down to the ocean at Paia at a more affordable rate.
