Kalopa State Cabins sit within the vibrant vegetation of the Hamakua Forest Reserve, where a capacity capping eight campers will be enveloped by the area’s jaw-dropping sights and alluring wildlife. Better yet, many of the cabins are situated next to the family-friendly, easily accessible hiking trail that loops much of the campground. Time to break in those hiking boots in the jungle!

I'm shooting east from site number 9 at 10:30p. Camping at Namakanipaio costs $20 per night $15 if you already have a Volcano's park pass. These sites get less costal moisture at night than camping in the national park and are 3 miles from the park entrance.
