Sunday Walk in the Park from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 pm

Big Island

Sunday, December 11: Sunday Walk in the Park from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 pm.  This monthly program on second Sundays is aimed at bringing together the members of the Friends of Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park to explore the park’s beautiful trails. Led by Nick Shema, this month’s 6-mile round-trip walk will explore the Puna Coast Trail.  This moderately strenuous 6-mile round-trip hike will traverse hardened pahoehoe lava along a windswept, sun-soaked landscape.  Hikers should be in good condition, able to do without shade all day in a remote, rugged area.  The walk is free to Friends members (though non-members are welcome to join the non-profit Friends group in order to attend). Park entrance fees apply. To register, contact Friends of Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park at (808) 985-7373 or admin@fhvnp.org.
