Upcountry Real Estate, Maui Hawaii

Encircling the inland slopes of Haleakala, the dormant volcano that is the centerpiece of the entire island of Maui, Upcountry Maui includes the areas of Kula, Olinda, Makawao, Pukalani, and Ulupalakua.

For those who have never ventured further than Maui's world-famous beaches, the first visit to Upcountry Maui is like being transported to a different world: Purple jacaranda trees against a backdrop of rolling green pastoral hills, small farms and sprawling cattle ranches; lush tropical rainforests opening to cactus dotted desert; 360 degree seascapes and moonscape-ish Haleakela crater. Wild fruit trees frame gorgeous country homes with intoxicating views overlooking acre upon acre of wide open spaces.

Several degrees cooler than the rest of the island, Upcountry Maui boasts what many consider the best climate and most incredible scenery on the island, well away from the crowds. Wineries, golf courses, ranches, riding stables, national and state parks, exotic botanical gardens, and quaint downtown areas with award-winning restaurants and shopping offer plenty of recreation opportunities.
