Bike rentals are possible in towns allowing for road exploration. Excursions companies offer mountain bike trips down Mt. Haleakala. You will also find bike rental shops that will rent you a bike, a bike rack, and some gear so you can ride Haleakala at your own pace.
Hikers are drawn to Haleakala National Park. One good route starts from the visitor center near the top to dormant volcanic cinder cones. There's also a fantastic hike called "13 Crossings" which traverses a stream 13 times. On the way, you'll see a bamboo forest and at the end a waterfall.
