Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park
Admission includedStanding at the rim of Kīlauea, one of the most active volcanoes on Earth, you feel the ground warm beneath your feet and catch the sulfurous drift of volcanic gases rising from the caldera below. Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park stretches across nearly 330,000 acres of the Big Island, encompassing steaming vents, hardened lava fields, and lush rainforest that gives way abruptly to barren black rock. This is a place where the planet's interior announces itself without apology, and where Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park earns its reputation as one of the most geologically dynamic destinations in the United States.
