This trail is less than a mile long and shows the devastation caused by the 1959 eruption of Kilauea Iki crater

A trail of less than a kilometer, very easy to walk, that shows the devastation caused by the eruption of Kilauea Iki crater in 1959. Looking at this expanse of hardened lava, who can imagine that a tropical forest once grew here? Hence the name of the trail. The signs allow to visualize this spectacular eruption whose jets went up to 579 m high, that is to say more than the Eiffel Tower and the Empire State Building! A real spectacle that tourists from all over the world could admire for about a month.

Randonnée très courte et très agréable, avec des paysages assez variés, qui débouche sur un joli point de vue sur le cratère du Kilauea Iki.
Avantage: très peu de monde sur ce sentier, donc très calme.
Retour par le même chemin.

Devastation trail permet de parcourir rapidement un endroit où la lave a tout emporté. On ne peut imaginer que la nature repousse mais c'est pourtant le cas après quelques années.

A faire après avoir assisté aux vidéos et explications du centre sur les diverses éruptions. Cela apporte un éclairage plus complet sur ce court sentier, hyper facile à parcourir.
