Adventure Tips
Bring a Headlamp
Even though the guide leads, a reliable headlamp ensures safe footing on uneven volcanic terrain.

Wear Sturdy Hiking Shoes
Volcanic rock underfoot can be sharp and uneven — solid hiking shoes provide needed protection and grip.
Stay Hydrated
Carry enough water for the 2–3 hour hike, as there are no available water sources along the route.
