La Peninsula

Exploration Path

We leave by van towards Mahatua, an ancient Rapa Nui settlement. Then we bike ride to the Tea Tea Mountain, in the Poike peninsula. We then follow along the south coastline cliffs and reach Ahu Tongariki, the Island’s largest platform from where we return taking byways.

The Poike zone, named after the oldest volcano on the island, offers some of its most unusual sceneries, with harsh conditions evidencing how the Rapa Nui is eroded by sea and water, one of the its people’s most pressing ecological predicaments.
