Of all the volcano's we skinned up this was the most accessable. It is very close to Pucon. We rented a car and could drive right to the snow line to begin our treck. There are other options for riding the Chairlift partway up the Volcano if you want to cheat. Ask the guys at Aguaventura in Pucon fo…

At first Kalapana seems a little anti-climatic...I mean you have to drive through the middle of nowhere to park. Then you have to walk about 30+ minutes while being observed by guards. (Watch out because they say you must be wearing tennis shoes but I walked all the way with Tevas so you can get awa…

Mount St. Helens erupted on May 18, 1980. The effects of the eruption were devastating. The north face of the mountain bulged and then blew off. The resulting mud and debris flow roared down the Toutle River valley destroying everything in its path. An ash cloud rose about 15 miles into the air …

Although we also highly recommend Safari Helicopters tour of the waterfalls of Kauai, Hawaii, they also do a great job touring Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park and the active Kilauea Volcano on Hawaii's "Big Island" of Hawaii out of Hilo Airport. In September 2004 my wife and I thouroughly enjoyed o…

After attending the American Geophysical Union conference in February of 2006, I decided to spend an extra three days in Hawaii and tour the Big Island. The plane ride from Oahu was around $170 and easy to purchase. Here is the story of my fastpaced-yet-covered-almost-all tour through …

A group of fifteen islands, that lie at a short distance off the south coast. So named because the Nordic settlers in the country called the Irish, that the islands are named after "westmen" – the men from the west.

This has been a breathtaking experience for me. We drove for 3-4 hours from our hotel in Rome to see the great Mount Vesuvius. The bus drove us halfway up the great volcano and we had to walk the rest of the way. It was a long walk up but it was worth it. The scenery was beautiful and the thought of…

This beautiful hostel lies on the shore of the Laguna de Apoyo. After a gorgeous, panoramic ride to the water you'll find the Monkey Hut, affiliated with the Bearded Monkey in nearby Granada. It offers grills, hammocks, lounge chairs, kayaks and a dock, and some of the coolest travellers I met in Ni…

Volcanoes National Park is unarguably one of the top destinations for visitors to the Big Island. Even for tourists staying in Kona, the drive around the island is well worth it to visit the Park.

We stayed there for two nights in late August and were overall very pleased with our stay. The lodge is on the southwest side of the volcano and therefore is the…

In Baños, several local agents offer trips to see the active volcano Tungurahua ‘glow in the dark’.
For about $3,- you can hop on a very crowded tour bus that will drive up the mountain across from the volcano while blasting seriously loud salsa music through the once peaceful environment.

Out of all the times I've been to Hawaii, I really never did anything touristy, due to the fact that my family are locals. Well, in July of 2003, I decided to venture off by myself to do something on the island I had not done before. Diamond Head Crater seemed like a good choice. I find volcanoes…

Wicked experience - a bit of a tourist trap but worth it nonetheless! We organised it through our hostel for $23,000 pesos each, or you can book for $30,000 pesos which will include a lunch.
Takes about 2hrs to get to the actual volcano and then you have about 30mins to bathe, and optional massag…

Southwest Washington State's biggest claim to fame is Mount St. Helens, the volcano that exploded in 1980, shooting phenomenal amounts of debris & ash all over the globe and permanently changing the face of the landscape for miles around.

Do try to take a day trip to Cotopaxi Volcano, at least climbing up to the refugio. Driving up from Quito, you will see interesting villages and landscapes, and entering the National Park, you will pass through Andean grasslands and Eucalipt and pine forests (imported). There is a nice lake for hiki…

This was a relatively easy hike. We parked at the entrance gate and started off. One thing to think about is following along behind an organized tour for a part of the hike. I did this and learned a lot about the volcano as well as the plants and animals that inhabit the area.
During the hike you…

I have to admit that my reaction to the ruins was kind of mixed. On one hand, it was interesting being able to get a glimpse of an ancient city. You can literally see bodies lying on the ground in their dying positions, mummified into ash. On the other hand, most of the city literally is in ruins. U…

OK, this place is like an upmarket Butlins. You get a chalet, complete with balcony view of the volcano. Apparently, I was lucky to see lava on both nights! There are also hot springs, some of which were filtered into a wet bar (y´know, stools in the pool - and that is stools …
