One of the dramatic highlights of our recent Hawaii trip was a night time hike to Poupou, at the extreme Eastern edge of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. In early June Poupou was the point where lava flowing underground from the Pu`u `O`o vent of Kilauea volcano emerged and dropped into the sea. Things at the volcano have changed since then! This is a challenge hike for a family, as the landscape is entirely hills, mounds and valleys of fresh volcanic glass.
What a destination though.... A must-do adventure if you find yourself on the Big Island!
This lava fall was about 20 feet high and several feet across.
