Fatos rápidos: A giant shield volcano spanning over 1,190 square kilometers, its last major eruption occurred in 2021. The park features a unique landscape with lava flows, ancient forests, and craters that show volcanic activity up close.
Destaques: Molten lava streams occasionally glow red during night visits, creating a stunning natural light show visitors can't see anywhere else. Small unique plants have adapted to thrive in the lava's rich volcanic soil, offering a rare glimpse into nature's resilience.
