Do not climb or walk on them or damage them. Do not collect archaeological objects or stones.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Anyone who causes damage or alterations to archaeological sites is exposed to jail terms and fines, in accordance with Law 17,288 on National Monuments.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Travel only on marked trails and paths. Do not enter environmental recovery zones or other restricted areas.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 All visitors must pay for the entrance to the National Park in the designated places, thus collaborating in the maintenance and improvement of the sites.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Camping is not allowed inside the National Park. Only in authorized campsites.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Be responsible for your safety and respect the signs and indications that are in the archaeological sites.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Take the garbage back to Hanga Roa and deposit it in the appropriate deposits.<\/p>\n<p>Failure to comply with any of these rules is subject to heavy sanctions. The park rangers carry cameras and the fines applied are quite high, so it is important to be vigilant and careful.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Widget Shortcode --><div id=\"text-47\" class=\"widget widget_text widget-shortcode area-arbitrary \">\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><p style=\"text-align: center; font-size: 0.7em; color: #c4c4c4; margin-top: 40px; margin-bottom: 5px;\">ADVERTISING<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"anuncio\">\r\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-9974337153208599\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Banner_Central Rapa Nui -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:300px;height:250px\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-9974337153208599\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"4035446418\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><!-- \/Widget Shortcode --><br \/>\n<!-- Widget Shortcode --><div id=\"custom_html-13\" class=\"widget_text widget widget_custom_html widget-shortcode area-arbitrary \"><div class=\"textwidget custom-html-widget\"><div class=\"content-box-redes-sociales\"><div class=\"addtoany_shortcode\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 addtoany_list\"><a class=\"a2a_button_whatsapp\" href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/whatsapp?linkurl=&amp;linkname=\" title=\"WhatsApp\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/facebook?linkurl=&amp;linkname=\" title=\"Facebook\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_x\" href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/x?linkurl=&amp;linkname=\" title=\"X\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_button_email\" href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/add_to\/email?linkurl=&amp;linkname=\" title=\"Email\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save addtoany_share\" href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- \/Widget Shortcode --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rapa Nui National Park Information about the Rapa Nui National Park.
