Even walking on cooled aa lava for hours can ruin a good pair of hikers. You have to be careful not to slide and that your steps are solid, else those all terrain soles will be compromised.

The flows are active right now and I believe there is a tour guide that will take people out there, no idea what he charges though. I went with a staff member of CVO.
