Feb 28, 2019There are no viewpoints or anything to see unless you are able to walk 1.5 miles, which i think should be posted, as people unable to walk that far will be very disappointed (literally they will only see a parking lot). Also, the "lava fields" were kind of a disappointment as there wasn't much to see.
4/5 - Good

Feb 27, 2019I expected there to be longer hiking trails. You can really hike the loop and to the lookout point in a couple of hours max. I did the loop twice and I think it only took me a couple of hours. I really wanted a solid 6-8 hour hiking day.
