Itinerário
Lava channels that go along an important territory, through which four underground chambers connect, form Ana Te Pahu, the biggest cave in Rapa Nui. Its great size made it ideal in primitive times; several umu (old kitchen system) show it was also used to prepare food. Ana Te Pahu is also known as the “cave of the bananas” since there is a big amount of that tree in the entrance.
Volcanic cave whose main entrance is about 100 meters from the parking lot. This cave it was used as both a shelter and ceremonial place in ancient times.
Volcanic cave where the lava flowed into the sea and left two mouths or "windows " leading directly to the cliff. Also known as the "cave of the two windows." this cave has a length of about 50 meters. It served as “kionga” or place of refuge in ancient times
Ahu Te Peu is an area with a high archeological value. Since it hasn’t been restored it is possible to observe the site exactly as the old inhabitants who, after internal wars, knocked down the moais left it. There used to be a village there. In fact, you can see the biggest boathouse or hare paenga in the island, which is 43 meters long and is called Tore Tahuna which, according to tradition, belonged to famous Ariki Tu’u Ko Ihu.

About Hanga Roa
Hanga Roa is the only town on Easter Island, Chile's remote Pacific outpost, with a small harbour and giant stone moai within walking distance.
Hanga Roa stretches along the west coast of Easter Island, called Rapa Nui by its people, some 3,500 km west of the Chilean coast. Nearly all the island's residents live here, in low houses among gardens, around a small fishing harbour and a church. A short walk north, the moai of Tahai stand on a platform beside the sea, facing inland, and the sun sets behind them.
