Take a hike! A Big Island Hike, that is.

Let Hawaiian Walkways, the Big Island’s first and oldest hiking adventure company, take you on your very own Saddle Road Explorations!

Hawaii's tallest volcano, Mauna Kea, and Earth's largest volcano, Mauna Loa, are literally two of Hawaii's biggest attractions! The high valley nestled between the two volcanoes, known as “the saddle,” cuts across the eastern and western parts of the island and contains an amazingly diverse variety of ecosystems and climates, making the scenic Saddle Road a favorite among hiking enthusiasts, bird-watchers, and photographers.

The Saddle Road Hike (closed to most rental cars) contains a variety of diverse terrain from historic-era lava flows, to ancient forests containing all sorts of native birds and wildlife.

The friendly and knowledgeable tour guides allow you to choose just how far you want to go, from an easy walk of about a mile, to a more strenuous nine-mile trek for the experienced hikers. And Hawaiian Walkways provides backpacks, raingear, and walking sticks, along with bottled water, lunch, and snacks.

So get out and enjoy the fresh air, gorgeous weather, and breath-taking scenery of the Big Isle’s Saddle Road. The award-winning experts of Hawaiian Walkways will guide you through some of the most spectacular and seldom-seen areas of the Big Island of Hawaii.

Just don’t forget to bring your camera!
