HAWAII VOLCANOES NATIONAL PARK, Hawaii — Kilauea’s latest eruption, that began early Monday morning, has halted, and some areas of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park have reopened.

Hilina Pali Road, Kulanaokauiki Campground the Footprints Exhibit and Pepeiao Cabin are all open, officials announced via a news release Friday.

Earlier this week, the park reopened the coastal campsite at Ka‘aha, Devastation Trail and Kanakako‘i. The areas were all closed after the latest eruption began near Kilauea's upper Southwest Rift Zone.

Maunaiki Trail and the Ka‘u Desert Trail past the Footprints Exhibit remain closed because of elevated gases and other volcanic hazards that remain at the eruption sites. 

According to the news release, U.S. Geological Survey scientists with Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reported elevated volcanic gas emissions, ground subsidence and severe earth cracks have formed during the eruption. They note that the cracks are unstable and could widen. Other hazards include hot, glass-like surfaces on the new lava flows, uneven and rough terrain and hot temperatures.

Park officials urge visitors to plan ahead and check the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park website for closure and hazard alerts.
