Start early for cooler trails
Begin hikes in the morning windows (7:30–10:00 a.m.) to avoid midday heat and get quieter wildlife viewing; ATV slots fill fast so reserve a morning time if possible.
Footwear matters
Wear sturdy closed-toe hiking shoes or trail runners—lava-rock trails are uneven and ATVs require secure footing when mounting and dismounting.
Pack swimwear and a dry bag
Natural spring pools and clay masks are included—bring a swimsuit, quick-dry towel, and a dry bag for electronics.
Know medical restrictions
The pass is not recommended for pregnant travelers or people with serious spinal or heart conditions—check health guidance before booking.
Sturdy closed-toe hiking shoes

Sun protection (hat, sunscreen, sunglasses)
The exposed viewpoints and ATV rides offer little shade—strong sun protection is essential.
