by Jiahong Jiahong is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Hotels & Travel, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Apr 13 '05
Pros: somewhat mystifying markings near scenic Hawaiian coastlines
Cons: What cons? Has there been a prison break?
Containing the only active volcano (Pu'u O'o) in the United States, Volcanoes National Park is the number-one attraction on the Big Island of Hawai'i. Lava flowing is not generally visible, often flowing through underground tubes. (A former lava tube, ...

by jo.com Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Aug 05 '02

The Big Island of Hawaii was our third stop in our 3-week vacation to this state. We visited Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park on our second day here.

Volcanoes National Park in Hawaii

by remnjava Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Feb 13 '06
Pros: Unique viewing experience.
Cons: You should be in GOOD SHAPE!
On a trip to the island of Hawaii, “the Big Island,” this was an excursion my husband really wanted to take. I was just recovering from a knee injury, and wasn’t sure just how capable I would be to make this 7 mile round trip trek through a ...

Walk on a volcano!

by howie09 , Dec 09 '02
Pros: A must see! You are traveling on a LIVE volcano!
Cons: The weather was cold. Didn't see any LAVA!!
Before I start I have to admit that jo.com's review of this park (you should find it on the list) is right on. I actually read her review before going off to Hawaii, so there isn't much more that I can add. I will just tell you about my experience at...

Hawaii, one of the rare places where you can you see a volcano in a national park!!! We took the helicopter ride over the ‘ring of fire’ and then went on down tothe “local” park to get another look!! Anywhere else in the world where there is a volcano,...

So what else is there to do in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park?

by joli Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Dec 02 '99
Pros: inexpensive, plenty of stuff for all day, very active day, unique
Cons: cold sometimes, rainy sometimes,
If you make it to the Big Island and don't want to hike or fly out to the lava flow but still want to explore the volcano, head to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. There is much more to do than just look at the new lava in this large park.

The Active Lava Flow: Approach with Reverence ...

by Urbanist , Nov 27 '00
Pros: Indescribably spectacular
Cons: Indescribably dangerous
OK, let's start by visualizing a typical National Park summertime scene. Old Faithful, say, or Yosemite Valley, or the Grand Canyon South Rim. Call back your memories of that faintly bovine mass of tourists -- that colorful mélange of grunting,...

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park: the Jaggar Museum

by jaseroque Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 10 '00
Pros: informative, great view of the caldera
Cons: cramped, out of date displays, not enough video
If you visit the magnificent Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, stop at the Jaggar Museum – but only for an hour or so. The main attractions of the park are outdoors, and the museum is not as good as the magnificent setting: the museum is small, cramped,...

The Volcano is Active

by Flavia , Oct 25 '01
Pros: Unlike anywhere I've ever been.
Cons: Cold, rainy, windy weather that day.
My trip to the Big Island of Hawaii was a one day trip. We went to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park for the day. It was quite an interesting experience.

All of the materials I read on-line said to be prepared for hot, sunny weather, but that...

Spectacular scenery...but don't expect lava

by goodmanb , Aug 19 '01
Pros: Earth in action, hiking, mix of accessible attractions and places off-the-beaten-path
Cons: Long walk to lava
If you absolutely must see flowing lava at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, you may be disappointed.

But that would be about the only way this park could disappoint. There are many craters, cinder cones, and vents to see, and acres and acres...

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park: What can you see in one or two days?

by jaseroque Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 10 '00
Pros: wonderful, unique National Park
Cons: don't make the Jaggar Museum a priority
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is one of the most magnificent, unique, memorable National Parks I have ever seen. If you visit the Big Island of Hawaii, the HVNP should be on your short list of things to do. Plan to spend at *least* a day here --...

Don't miss the Volcano if you go to Hawaii!

by livealoha , Jan 19 '03
Pros: Tranquil, peaceful, picturesque, a place to get away from it all. Friendly People
Cons: No pool to go swimming...would be nice..
Volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii is a great place. Being a nature person I found it to be perfect for me. Volcano is a very rural small community where everyone seems to know each other, and the people still wave to each other on the street. It does...
