Located on Mars Olympus Mons is the largest known volcano in the Sol System. Rising roughly 27 kilometers (17 miles) above the Martian surface it is three times taller than Mount Everest on Earth and covers an area approximately the size of Texas.
The minds behind the Mars Terraforming Project intend for Olympus Mons to become even more of a tourist attraction than it currently is, by introducing sking and other winter activities once there's weather to work with. Note, you will still need assitance breathing after that, especially if you go all the way up.
