Hawaii Volcanoes map from the park brochures

This is the main Hawaii Volcanoes National Park map, showing all of the park lands on Mauna Loa and Kilauea on the southern side of the Big Island. Roads naturally are shown, but trails and mileages are included too.

This is the Kilauea map, the most visited section of Hawaii Volcanoes. Road and trail closures here can happen suddenly depending on Kilauea’s activity. Click the image to view a full size map or download the PDF.

This is the Kahuku Unit map, labeling parking, trailheads, and trails. Take note of the quarantine zones and associated gates at the higher elevations. Click the image to view a full size map or download the PDF.

Hawaii Volcanoes trail map

If you’re just sticking to the main roads and walkways, you probably don’t need a full-fledged Hawaii Volcanoes hiking trail map. However, if you’re planning on longer full-day or overnight hikes, the National Geographic Trails Illustrated trail map is your best bet, since it has topographic lines and detail you won’t find on the free maps. This is also a must if you plan on venturing off established trails.

Big Island map

Here’s a Big Island of Hawaii map that zooms out to show the entire island. It includes the major cities and other national park units. A really spectacular map! Click the image to view a full size map or download the PDF.

Various Hawaii Volcanoes maps

This is the Hawaii Volcanoes backcountry map, showing trail mileages, cabins, water sources, and wilderness campsites along developed hiking trails on Mauna Loa and Kilauea.

The Hawaii Volcanoes geologic map includes not just the lava flows and rock types on national park lands, but on the rest of the Big Island of Hawaii as well, including Kona and Hilo.

This Hawaii regional map shows the entire Big Island, highlighting the other national park units. It also includes major roads, towns, and a rough overview of land cover types (forest vs lava).

Hawaii Volcanoes lodging map

The great thing about visiting Hawaii Volcanoes is that you have great lodging options just outside the park entrance. To the right is an Expedia interactive lodging map showing the locations of the many guesthouses, lodges, and cottages nearby. I also recommend taking a look at Expedia’s top-rated Hilo lodging to compare prices and reviews if you want to stay there and just go up to Kilauea as a day trip.

Archived Hawaii Volcanoes maps

These three maps used to be the official National Park Service brochure maps, but they’ve since been superseded by the ones on top of this page. I’ve preserved them here for archival purposes and to ensure any direct links to these maps from around the web remain active and unbroken. Keep in mind that closures at this park can change rapidly! So the information on these is no longer current.
