Sunrise reservations are still required for entrance from 3 am – 7 am. To make reservations go to www.recreation.gov There will be no entrance fee for entering the park.

Visitor Centers in the Summit District and the Kipahulu District and the Pools of ‘Oheʻo in the Kīpahulu District are closed. All park interpretive and educational programs are canceled. The National Park Service will not be providing services for campgrounds, including maintenance, janitorial, check-in/check-out, and cabin permits. However, visitors in Holua, Paliku, Hosmer Grove and Kipahulu tent campgrounds will not be asked to leave unless safety concerns are required.
