Introduction

'Ohe'o Gulch, better known as the Seven Sacred Pools, lies in the coastal section of Haleakala National Park on eastern Maui — a chain of cascading waterfall pools where stream water tumbles from pool to pool in a green valley. The 'sacred' name is a myth, but the scenery is stunning; in high water the pools close to swimming, and a short trail to the falls' top is the main experience.
