Mount Yasur is one of the world's most accessible active volcanoes. From the parking lot, it's a 5-minute walk to the crater rim. Pick a vantage point and watch the volcano lob great plumes of glowing lava into the air every five minutes, accompanied by a colossal explosion and a gust of hot, gritty air. Some blasts will have you checking your exits. Unforgettable.
