  • We loved these and it only takes 30 minutes to see them. You can walk right up to some of the vents and be bathed in steam coming right out of the volcano! I wish we had taken the Sulphur Banks Trail....  more

  • We came at the end of August and didn't seem to have any issues with crowds or parking. The stream vents were cool too see as I've never experienced it before, the kids seemed to enjoy it for a little bit. The trail is very easy and paved. The day we went it was overcast, so it wasn't hot or too humid. Perfect for hiking/walking a couple miles.
  • The steam vents are some of the coolest things you will see in the national park! Warm, and sometimes hot, steam emits from cracks in the ground where water has been heated by underground magma. It is really neat to experience--you can see it along the Crater Rim Trail and the Steam Vents boardwalk--but make sure to stick to the trail so you don't fall into a hole or the hot water!
