During our week on Rapa Nui, we took three tours with Cristián Moreno Pakarati, the founder the Rapa Nui Pioneers Society. The last one was the Poike Peninsula hike and it was terrific. The Poike area is remote (which is why we wanted to see it) and has many unique points of interest that really require a guide to locate. One was the rock sculpture, Maunga Vai a Heva, with its accompanying legend that Cristian explained to us. Another was Ana O Keke, a cliff side cave with well preserved petroglyphs inside and more fascinating history related by Cristain.
The hike is about 7 miles and includes a lot of other sites to investigate (small caves, moai remains, and petroglyphs). Cristián’s comprehensive historical knowledge makes every site stop an interesting one. The last stop is the top of the second highest volcano on the island, Ma'unga Pu'a Katiki (aka Poike), with amazing views of the island from its east end. I’d recommend taking this hike towards the end of you time on Rapa Nui because the view from the volcano brings together many of the more popular sites you’ll have already seen.

Christian was an outstanding guide. We hiked around Poike Peninsula for a full day. Christian provided fascinating insights into the local history and customs. It was exactly what I was looking for and the highlight of my two week Patagonia - Rapa Nui trip. If you enjoy hiking this is the trip to book and Christian is the guide to have. Thanks for the memories Christian! Take care brother.
