Hawaii is one of the world's most popular destinations, offering the quintessential vacation thanks to the combination of varied tropical natural beauty, great weather, warm water, and the amenities of a USA state. The Hawaiian Islands are a group of volcanos that have risen up over a "hot spot" of molten rock that wells up from deep in the earth's interior. As the ocean floor slowly moves over this spot, islands are born. They are then carried towards the northwest. The chain of Hawaiian islands were formed in the order: Kauai, Oahu, Maui, Hawaii. Because of this age difference, each of the Hawaiian islands exhibits a distinct character. The younger island, Hawaii, has the highest summit and active volcanic features, but relatively smooth topology, like all the islands had when they rose out of the sea. Much of it is relatively arid and covered in bare lava fields. The oldest island, Kauai, has dramatic scenery formed by erosion, and the lushest vegetation. The other Hawaiian islands are in between, with Oahu having more fluted eroded mountains than Maui, where the dormant crater is younger and higher, and could still spring back to life.

AskChrisKnight.com HOME :: Travel-and-Leisure / Outdoors Hawaii Volcano Tour By Keith Thompson Article Word Count: 316 [ View Summary ] Comments (0) A Hawaii volcano tour can be a most memorable experience,and is readily available (short of eruptions!) year round.While each island boasts some volcanic heritage, The BigIsland is where all the action is. A Hawaii volcano tour of necessity begins in HawaiiVolcanoes National Park, established in 1916. This park,containing more than 218,000 acres, is open daily and offersguided tours and more. It encompasses both the world's mostmassive volcano, Mauna Kea, at 13,796 feet, and Kilauea, theworld's most active volcano. Mauna Kea, which in Hawaiianmeans literally "white mountain", gets this name from thefact that it is quite often snow-capped. It is also thoughtto be the world's tallest mountain when measured from it'sundersea base to the summit. Currently dormant, Mauna Keahas also become the home of an important astronomicalcenter, where astronomers from all over the world vie forspots atop the summit to view the heavens. Kilauea, which has been in continual eruption since 1983,gives visitors on a Hawaii volcano tour stunning views ofmolten lava flows, steam vents, and vast lava fields. It issaid that this eruption has added more than 500 acres to theBig Island since it's eruption! One more fascinating tidbitabout Kilauea, is that perched atop the crater rimoverlooking the caldera is the Volcano House, Hawaii'soldest continually-operated hotel, dating from 1846.Probably not hard to keep warm at night! On Maui, one volcano not to overlook is Haleakala, a dormantvolcano in the middle of the island, long renowned for it'sfantastic sunsets. It's also a great place to hike or camp,and especially ride a bike down! (Very Cool!) Good reason togo to Maui. (As if you needed one!) When you plan your Hawaii volcano tour, be sure to plan sometime to take in some or all of these sights. You'll beforever changed!
