About Haikou Volcanic Cluster Geopark

The main visitor route climbs Ma’anling, where paths and viewpoints reveal the shape of an extinct volcanic cone. This is a geological walk through a tropical setting, rather than a beach excursion. Combine the crater with the interpretation displays and allow for humid, exposed steps on the ascent.

What to look for

  • Ma’anling crater rim and the shape of the volcanic cone.
  • Lava formations and displays explaining the Shishan volcanic landscape.

The surrounding area

Northern city base for arcaded streets and an urban introduction to island food.
