Moai Process

Exploration Path

We take a van from the hotel and head to Pui Hill, where we begin trekking towards Rano Raraku, the moai quarry. We visit the archaeological site and the crater. We then head to Anakena by bike, where we see archaeological remains and enjoy the best beach in Rapa Nui. Bring your swimsuit.

Carved from the volcanic slopes of the Rano Raraku, the moai are as much a part of Rapa Nui as the soil itself on which it stands.
