Aja’s favorite Hiking Trails
Pu’u HuluHulu. This is an easy spectacular trail that begins at the Mauna Ulu parking lot a short way down the Chain of Craters road. The trail winds its way through a pretty pahoehoe lava area studded with Ohelo berry bushes. Ohelo berries are a favorite of Nene geese, an endangered bird, and actually Hawaii’s state bird, so this is an area to sometimes spot this elusive bird. The trail continues slightly uphill, then climbs a larger hill. This area is a kipuka - a mass of land that the lava went around and left the forest intact. From the top of the hill there are great views of the smoking Puʻu Ōō vent, and closer views of the steaming Napau Crater. Total distance about 2 miles round trip.
