A TRIP to these Polynesian islands is an investment but you'll be rewarded with top hiking across ancient lava flows, up craggy volcanic peaks and down fluted sea cliffs; diving among giant manta rays; tropical beaches and botanical gardens to explore and more national parks than you can ever hope to visit. Hawai'i the Big Island Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park The eerie glow of a lava lake, secluded palm-fringed beaches, ancient petroglyphs pecked into hardened lava and native honeycreepers singing in rainforested oases: you couldn't get a more atmospheric hiking destination. This national park has miles of hiking trails through smoking craters, rainforest and desert. If you have time for only one, choose the Kilauea Iki Trail, a four-mile hike along the crater rim of Kilauea - the earth's youngest and most active volcano. But be sure to book the Secret Lava Tube tour: only 12 people are allowed once a week to see this cave's bizarre ecosystem (nps.gov/havo; $10 per car; call Kilauea Visitor Centre, 00 1 808 985 6017, for details of how to book the free secret lava tour).
