Hawaii Volcanoes National Park
Beginning on the crater's rim
in the rain forest, the 4 mile Kilauea Iki Trail descends 400' through
the rainforest to the crater floor, crossing the crater floor which is
still steaming crater floor, before returning to it's starting point via
the crater's rim.
Kilauea Iki Trail begins at the Kilauea Iki parking
lot on Crater Rim Drive. Traveling left at the trailhead will take you
to the Thurston Lava Tube parking lot and then to the floor of Kilauea
Iki. Traveling right will take you through the rain forest on the crater
rim and down to the crater floor.
Kilauea Iki Trail is rated moderate to challenging.
