TOP OF CHAPTER
Haliʻimaile
The little pineapple town of Haliʻimaile (ʻfragrant twining shrub') is named after the
sweet-scented maile plants used in lei-making that covered the area before pineapple
took over. The heart of town is the old general store (c 1918), which has been turned into
Upcountry's best restaurant. Haliʻimaile Rd runs through the town, connecting Baldwin
Ave (Hwy 390) with the Haleakalā Hwy (Hwy 37).
