Wow- the views along the way were stunning! If you are not a hiker, this trip may be a little bit of a challenge. You do ascend over 1400 ft. Our guide, Mark, was super knowledgeable about the land. He was also good about giving us options based on our group’s abilities. We had an 8 and 10 year old and a person who has never hiked before. The others in our group were awesome pausing for us to catch up and giving us a little rest time. We had such a good time and enjoyed the morning up on the volcano.
