Life on the Edge
For a century people have been drawn to this National Park to stand at the edge of one of the most active volcanoes on earth - Kīlauea.
Kīlauea may just be the most active volcano on earth sitting atop the Hawaiian Hot Spot creating a living, breathing, moving landscape – sacred, cherished and always changing.

- Look into the heart of one of the world’s most active volcanoes and learn about the newest eruptions
