The Hawaiian Islands and the U.S. State of Hawaiʻi 13 major mountain peaks with at least 500 meters (1640 feet) of topographic prominence.
The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways:
The topographic elevation of a summit measures the height of the summit above a geodetic sea level. The first table below ranks the 13 major summits of Hawaiʻi by topographic elevation.
The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings. The second table below ranks the 13 major summits of Hawaiʻi by topographic prominence.
The topographic isolation (or radius of dominance) of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation. The third table below ranks the 13 major summits of Hawaiʻi by topographic isolation.
Highest major summits
Of the 13 major summits of Hawaiʻi, Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa exceed 4000 meters (13,123 feet) elevation, Haleakalā exceeds 3000 meters (9843 feet), Hualalai exceeds 2000 meters (6562 feet), and 11 peaks exceed 1000 meters (3281 feet) elevation.
Four of these peaks rise on the island of Hawaiʻi, two on Maui, two on Kauaʻi, two on Molokaʻi, two on Oʻahu, and one on Lānaʻi.
Of the 13 major summits of Hawaiʻi, Mauna Kea exceeds 4000 meters (13,123 feet) of topographic prominence, Haleakalā exceeds 3000 meters (9843 feet), Mauna Loa exceeds 2000 meters (6562 feet), six peaks are ultra-prominent summits with more than 1500 meters (4921 feet), and eight peaks exceed 1000 meters (3281 feet) of topographic prominence.
Of the 13 major summits of Hawaiʻi, Mauna Kea has 3947 kilometers (2453 miles) of topographic isolation and four peaks exceed 100 kilometers (62.14 miles) of topographic isolation.
