About this place

Added by Jean-Claude Linossi

Easy trail at the base of the volcano with good views of the volcano and lava flows.

Get started on the hike from the parking lot. The first quarter mile is paved and very easy to walk. The rest of the trail takes you to the base of the volcano through lava flows and tubes. This is an incredible landscape to take in along your hike.
