    Tips

    Here in this area is the end of the pavement on Mauna Kea Access Rd. In this area, cyclists can find the Onizuka Center for International Astronomy's Mid-Level Facility, Maunakea Visitor Information Station, Mauna Kea Humu'ula Trailhead, and Halepohaku. Visitors should be careful while visiting due to the chances of getting altitude sickness due to this point being at 9,200 feet above sea level, and often visitors are coming from sea level.

    From here the road continues on but it is unpaved. The road is dirt and 4x4 cars are recommended. If cyclists are choosing to ride to the Mauna Kea summit, they should have a bike with the proper tires. Otherwise this is a great turn around spot, with great views!

      Very tough climb that crosses one of the most beautiful and fascinating territories of the whole island
