Saturday volcano rain forest tours begin Saturday

Volcano Art Center is offering Niaulani Rain Forest guided tours from 11 a.m. to noon Saturdays, beginning May 19, at 19-4074 Old Volcano Road in Volcano Village.

These weekend tours are formatted the same as the Monday Niaulani Nature Walks but geared toward better accommodating residents’ schedules and visitors driving from the leeward side of the island. The 1/7-mile trail is an easy stroll. Participants should prepare for rain as mist is characteristic in the area. No reservations are required but are requested for groups of five or more people.

Attendees learn of the historic importance of the Niaulani Rain Forest, the basics of Hawaiian rain forest ecology and the evolution and traditional uses of native plants and animals.

For more information, contact Volcano Art Center at 967-8222 or programs@volcanoartcenter.org.
