Hike to Flowing Lava

There are no active lava flows on the Big Island of Hawai'i at this time. Kīlauea volcano erupted for almost 30 years, but after a particularly destructive cycle in 2018 the volcano stopped issuing lava. Hiking to flowing lava was one of the most incredible experiences on the Big Island.
