Very nice trail to go for a hike/walk. However, there are no trees thus no shade (besides a couple of shade structures), so plan accordingly. Initial leg of the trail is pretty smooth gravel trail (probably wheelchair accessible), but later parts (including going up the volcano) has some rough spots, nothing terrible, but watch your footing.

Great stop! Nice visitors center, friendly park rangers, informative 20m video … short drive to 3 trail options. We did the Boca Negra Canyon … was shorter trail with numerous petroglyphs … beautiful view from the top

The video shown at the visitor center was very interesting and informative. The park staffs were very knowledgeable and friendly. The petroglyph signs were from several thousands ago. I couldn’t understand what they meant for sure, but I believe they intended to tell us about water, birds and weather for our better lives in future. Very much felt grateful!

Visitors center was just a booth. The worker at the gift shop was making sure to follow CDC guidelines to keep a small enough number of people inside. Toilet vaults were less than ideal. Wonderful experience overall though!

Free to anyone at all times. I walk our dog there all the time. Gates close at 5 pm for car parking but you can walk in. I have never had to pay. You might have to pay for a personally guided tour.

The park is broken up into different areas around town,many miles apart. Once you get to an area there's plenty of walking or hiking depending on the area to get to see the Petroglyphs. Go to the visitor center first and they will let you know what area is more strenuous or available to handicappable.
