Are there popular but poorly paved roads on Big Island which require an SUV?

score:6

A 4x4 is required to go into Waipio Valley. There is a police officer at the top of the road who will not let you drive down into the valley unless you're in a 4x4. The road is well paved but extremely steep. I would not want to attempt to drive it without a 4x4 anyway.

The road to the Mauna Kea visitor information station (very high but not at the top) is just a regular road. No need for any special vehicle. If you want to go past the VIS up to the very top, it's a steep gravel road which needs a 4x4, according to the official website http://www.ifa.hawaii.edu/info/vis/visiting-mauna-kea/visiting-the-summit.html The visitor information center is where the telescopes for tourists are. The telescopes at the summit are not open to the public.
