The Summit of Mauna Kea is a very special place with its spectacular views, particularly at sunset. To drive there, you need a four wheel drive vehicle. If you don't have one, you can book a tour on one of the local tour companies or have me take you - for a price. Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain in the world if you measure from its base on the Pacific Ocean floor 33,474 ft (10.203m) and 13,803 ft (4,207m) above sea level. If you want to view the stars, you can go to the Onezuka Visitors Center at 9,200 ft (2,804m). Several nights a week they have telescopes set up for free stargazing.

At the 9500' level on Mauna Kea, the Visitor Center is as far as you can go without a four wheel drive. The center is open on the weekends and Friday afternoon, and features stargazing on Friday and Saturday evenings. A small but interesting museum is housed in the Center with regular showings of an excellent video on the development of the mountaintop observatories. Call 961-2180 for information. Saddle Rd. Rt. 200 to John Burns Way. Have a full tank of gas and a jacket with you as it’s chilly up there

You will need 4x4 to get there.

Although you can drive yourself up the mountain in a 4 wheel drive car for either sunrise or sunset and acclimate at the Visitor Center (where you must decompress for about an hour), it is recommended to use a touring group to get the most out of this adventure. Kapohokine Adventures or Mauna Kea Summit Adventures are two of the companies that offer tours.
