Ride Haleakalā on your smart trainer

What the climb is like

The gradient is never extreme, mostly between 5 and 7 percent, but the climb goes on for over 50 kilometres. It starts among farms and towns, passes through ranch land and switchbacks in the national park, and ends on bare volcanic rock at more than 3,000 metres.

How to ride it in Pedalsim

Haleakalā is one of the built-in Pedalsim routes: open it from the button below, or under Pedalsim routes in the app, and ride. Your trainer reproduces every change in its gradient as you climb, and the wind is the live weather at the climb, so a headwind on an exposed section feels like one.

On the 3D map you see the real mountain around you, with its forests, villages and the road winding up ahead, in the season and light of the day you ride. It is on Windows, Android, Linux and the web.

Few riders do this in one sitting. Ride it in stages: stop at any point, and the next session picks up exactly where you left off.

Figures are approximate: sources measure the climb from slightly different points.
