Summary

We all know Australia is the place for bushwalking... New Zealand has some good tracks too... but surprisingly the rest of the world has some places worth visiting too! (imaging that!)

This is the place to share walks from outside of Australia/New Zealand.

Kīlauea Iki

Kīlauea Iki is a smaller caldera located next to the larger more active Kīlauea caldera. Since the Kīlauea caldera floor has been closed to hikers due to volcanic activity, Kīlauea Iki is as close as you're going to get. The Kīlauea Iki trail starts on the crater rim and drops down to the caldera floor. You get to walk across the entire breadth of the caldera floor seeing different kinds of lava, stream vents, sulphur, and all that volcanic goodness.
