Reviews of Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park
"Visited here in January. We only had one day here so we had to make the most of it. We did several short hikes. Visited the top of the volcano. And drove the road all the way down to the coast. The visitor center is a good starting point to gather your maps and plan your days visit. We also stop by the lodge to pick up some snacks for the long road down to the ocean."
"Definitely an amazing park, absolutely incredible views of the volcano and some very well curated hikes. There is a lot to see here and almost none of it requires a strenuous hike. Head to the Volcano House first for the most amazing views of the crater. For the lava tubes and the hike down to the lava field, I highly recommend you get there early as that parking lot fills up incredibly quickly. The main negative of the park is there is just not enough parking anywhere. But you should absolutely come here if you’re on the Big island!"
"We rented a car at the Hilo Airport and drove here. No need for expensive cruise excursion tour. Lots of parking at multiple view sites. Not crowded, friendly fellow tourists took turns at railings and took pictures of us. Spectacular views. Lots of old lava flows and a huge crater you can park near and walk to. Easy walking. Crater edge is nearly level with parking. One note, wear a good mask around the steam vents. We both had sinus inflammation for 3 days after our visit."
"We took a drive through Hawaii Volcano National Park. What a fantastic afternoon. We drove to the bottom of the “Chain of Craters” road. It’s worth the 19 mile trek. It rained half way down and the sunny st the bottom. We then toured Thurston Lava Tube. My favorite!! Loved the walk down the tropical path through the lava tube and out the other end. Ya might need a flashlight. The phone flashlight works good too. The steam vents were great. I couldn’t believe how hot they were. Lastly we visited the crater and Volcano house…. Spectacular! What a sight to see. I thankfully can only imagine it erupting. Make sure you stop for a visit to the volcano national park"
"This experience was incredible for our family. We had the opportunity to hike the rim of the volcano, walk through a large lava tube, and drive to the end of the park. Prepare for a full day experience to get the most out of the park. If not, you may end up driving back in the dark. I highly recommend Shaka Guide App. This is available on the App Store and was featured on Trip Advisor. It is a fun and engaging app that highlights all the sections in the park, in real time, based on where you are at. This made the entire experience even better."
