    Hiking

    The name of this cinder cone, Puʻuhuluhulu, means "hairy hill" — an apt descriptor as the vegetation-clad slopes here are a stark contrast to the Mauna Ulu lava flow that mostly surrounds Puʻuhuluhulu.

    There's a great observation deck at the summit, and a public bathroom in the nearby parking lot.

    Hiking

    Summit of a cinder cone. Great view on the Mauna Ulu eruption site and its lava flows. Also nice view inside the cinder cone and its lush vegetation.

    Hiking

    Very short uphill climb as an offshoot from the main Napau Crater trail.
