How to visit

Volcano is a working community of about twenty-five hundred people. The B&Bs, restaurants, and the farmers market on Sunday mornings are owner-operated by people who live here. Park in marked stalls; the residential side roads are narrow. The forest around the village is native ʻōhiʻa-koa rainforest — among the most intact native Hawaiian forest left at this elevation; brush mud off your shoes before walking trails to slow the spread of rapid ʻōhiʻa death.
