We camped nearby the night before and we arrived at the trailhead at around 9:00. We hiked up the forest trail to the upper tube which is typically the exit, but we entered there! The tube takes quite a bit of concentration to ensure safe footing, I would suggest bringing gloves since there is many times where climbing over large rocks piles and using your hands is necessary. We passed a few groups of hikers, but didn’t encounter too much traffic. Overall the lava tubes were pretty fun to explore!!
