Hawaiʻi Guide

Maunakea Stargazing

Some of Earth's clearest night skies, above the clouds at 9,200 feet.

<p>Guided evening tours from Hilo or Kona visit the Visitor Information Station elevation for sunset and telescope viewing. Maunakea is sacred in Hawaiian culture and conditions above the station are extreme — going with a permitted guide handles altitude, cold-weather gear and access rules. Summit access policies change; check current status.</p>
