Accessibility to the ongoing eruptions of Kilauea Volcano and the periodic eruptions of Mauna Loa, offers opportunity for the scientist
and casual observer alike, to witness the formation of an array of astounding geologic features including new cinder cones, glowing
pit craters, rivers of lava and fountains of spatter. The island of Hawai’i actually consists of five volcanoes as part of a volcanic chain
of islands created over a 70-million-year period by the northwestward movement of the ocean floor over a fixed hot spot in the Earth’
s mantle. Molten rock rising from this hot spot, about 60 to 70 miles beneath the ocean floor, is currently fueling the continuous
eruptions of Kilauea Volcano within the Park.
Well-known for its volcanic significance, Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park is also one of the most fascinating biologic landscapes in
the world. Located over 2,000 miles from the nearest continental land mass, the Hawaiian Archipelago is the most geographically
isolated group of islands on Earth. The Park sits on the southeastern edge of the youngest and largest island at a latitude of 19°N.
Stretching from the summit of Mauna Loa at 13,677 feet to sea level, the Park protects a wide diversity of ecosystems and habitat for
numerous native Hawaiian species such as carnivorous caterpillars, happy face spiders and colorful Hawaiian honeycreepers.
Hawaiian plants and animals began to evolve over 70 million years ago in nearly complete isolation and over 90% of the native
terrestrial flora and fauna in Hawai'i are found only in the Hawaiian islands. This level of endemism surpasses all other places on
Earth— even the Galapagos Islands. Consequently, the Park is a fantastic laboratory for the study of biogeography and evolution
within the Pacific Islands.
With over 333,000 acres, Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park offers endless opportunities for great adventures in the Park. Over half of
the park is designated wilderness and provides unusual hiking and camping opportunities.
Visiting the park by car is easy to do. The two main roads visitors will travel are Crater Rim Drive and Chain of Craters Road. All
roads in the park are two-wheel drive roadways and do not require four-wheel drive vehicles.
There are two drive-in campgrounds in the park; Namakanipaio and Kulanaokuaiki. Camping is FREE; the only fee that applies is
your entrance fee to the Park. Drive-In camping is available on a first-come basis. No reservations, No permits, and No check-in are
necessary.
Located within Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park and nestled on the rim of Kilauea caldera, the Volcano House with its unique
charm, has captured the hearts of local islanders and travelers from all over the world. As Hawai'i's oldest continually operated
hotel, with a history dating back to 1846, the Volcano House has offered spectacular views and warm hospitality for decades.
Facilities include 42 Rooms, (20 Crater View, 12 Non-crater View, 10 Garden View ) Ka Ohelo Dining Room, Uncle George's
Lounge, 2 Gift Shops and a Snack Bar. Ten Camper Cabins are operated by the Volcano House and are located in the
Namakanipaio Campground.
