Do the full four mile hike across the crater . It's unbelievable... Like you're on a different planet. Excellent workout too. Just be ready for some serious uphill work.

Brodie Olmstead

Beautiful and fairly short hike . Bring lots of water and sunscreen , as it gets hot in the crater . Lots of switchbacks through the rainforest are a welcome cool off.

Maríus Mūller

It's worth purchasing the Trail Guide for 2$ at the trail head. It points out various information marked along the way with numbers, like geological background of the crater , plants and animals.

It's a 2 hours hike (round trip) from the crater rim to the black crater floor. Watch hot steam coming out of the ground. Take enough water with you.

Jimmy Kastner

Bring lots of water and sunscreen . Also good hiking shoes will save your feet. If you go into the crater , you will be isolated, so be prepared.

is a good and easy 2-3 hrs trail loop around and inside the Kilauea Iki Crater with lava rocks from 1959 lava. the active Halema'uma'u Crater can be seen from this hike .

Great trails! We spent a day here, barely putting a dent in the amount of things to do! Get a stainless steel water bottle and refill it with the naturally purified rain water. - Andrew Fuller
