• Kīlauea Visitor Center - This is the starting point of the short yet pungent Sulphur Banks Trail. Despite its name, it’s not sweet at all, but rather quite smelly!

• Steam Vents - These vents are formed by the heat from the Kilauea Volcano, which warms groundwater trapped in subterranean pockets. The steam rising from these vents signals the volcano’s underground activity.

• Kilauea Military Camp - Originally a recreational facility for soldiers, its history includes serving as an internment camp during World War II for both prisoners of war and innocent Japanese citizens.

• 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 a challenging elevation change.

• 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 showcases unique geological formations created by volcanic activity, offering a fascinating experience for visitors.

• Pauahi Crater - This steep-sided pit crater was formed by explosive volcanic activity. Approximately 330 feet deep and 1,000 feet in diameter, it is known for its intriguing 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 encircles 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, look for the 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 stunning sea cliff naturally shaped into an arch!

• Volcano Art Center Gallery - A small building separate from the main Visitor Center, the Volcano Art Center Gallery is a delightful stop for art enthusiasts.
