Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park

The Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park is situated on the island of Hawaii in the U.S. state of Hawaii. The park is home to two active volcanoes: Mauna Loa, the largest shield volcano in the world, and Klauea, one of the most active volcanoes in the world.

Researchers can use the park to study volcanism and get insight into how the Hawaiian Islands developed. The park provides tourists views of unique flora and wildlife, magnificent volcanic vistas, and a look at the traditional Hawaiian culture associated with these environments. The Hawaii Belt Road serves as the park's main entry. The Chain of Craters Road travels by a number of ancient eruption craters as it heads toward the shore.

The road had gone on to another park entry close to Kalapana, but that section is now blocked by a lava flow and is only usable in an emergency. The Kahuku District of the park is reachable by Kahuku Road, which departs from Highway 11 close to milepost 70.
