Volcanoes Trail passes by three different volcanoes and this section passes by Vulcan that gets its name from the Roman god of fire. Don't worry, though; this is an inactive volcano, so you won't encounter any fire. This volcano rises 600 feet above the valley floor, giving you stunning views of the valley.
