• Kilauea Military Camp - Originally a recreational facility for soldiers, this site has a complex history. During World War II, it served as an internment camp for prisoners of war and innocent Japanese citizens.
• Steam Vents - These vents are formed by the heat from the Kilauea Volcano, which warms groundwater trapped in underground pockets. The rising steam indicates the volcano’s subterranean activity.
• Kīlauea Visitor Center - This is the starting point for the short but pungent Sulphur Banks Trail. Despite its name, the trail is known for its strong odor!
• Kilauea Overlook - This breathtaking viewpoint is a must-see in the park. Although the crater doesn’t resemble a typical volcano, it is one of the most active in the world!
• Kilauea Iki Trailhead - This trail takes you directly through the Kilauea Iki Crater! It’s a 3.3-mile loop that takes about three hours, with some challenging elevation changes.
• Nahuku - Thurston Lava Tube - Formed over 500 years ago, this lava tube was created when molten lava flowed through the area, forming a tunnel-like cave as the outer lava cooled and hardened while the inner lava continued to flow. Visitors can explore this unique cave system today.
• Luamanu Crater - Once filled with a dense forest, the Luamanu Crater underwent a dramatic transformation in just one day.
• Puhimau Crater - Located in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Puhimau Crater offers visitors a chance to witness the unique geological formations created by volcanic activity.
• Pauahi Crater - This steep-sided pit crater was formed by explosive volcanic activity. It is approximately 330 feet deep and 1,000 feet in diameter, known for its fascinating geological features, including lava spatter deposits and fumaroles emitting steam and gases.
• Pu’u Huluhulu Trailhead - Pu’u Huluhulu is a cinder cone, similar to Pu’upua’i. Its name means “hairy hill” due to the low shrubs that have grown across it, giving it a fuzzy appearance from a distance.
• Kipuka Puaulu Trail - Kipukas are formed when a lava flow surrounds an area of older vegetation, allowing it to thrive and create a unique island of life amidst a barren lava field. These kipukas often have their own microclimate, with distinct soil types and moisture levels, supporting diverse plant species.
• Mauna Ulu Lookout - This elevated platform provides panoramic views of the Mauna Ulu lava flow. While mostly flat and gray, visitors can spot toadstool-shaped formations.
• Pu’u Loa Petroglyphs - Situated in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island of Hawaii, Pu‘u Loa Petroglyphs is a historical site where visitors can see over 23,000 ancient petroglyphs etched into the hardened lava rock.
• Holei Sea Arch - The renowned Holei Sea Arch is a naturally formed sea cliff shaped like an arch, offering a picture-perfect view!
• Volcano Art Center Gallery - Look for a small building separate from the main Visitor Center. This is the Volcano Art Center Gallery, a delightful stop for art enthusiasts.
