  OVERVIEW  
     
  Located in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, this gem of a hike explores 400 foot deep Kilauea Iki Crater, site of a spectacular 1959 eruption that featured lava fountains blasting nearly a mile into the sky. The hike passes through lush rainforest at the edge of the crater, then across an otherworldly land of lava formations and sulfur steam vents on the crater floor.........
