The Lava Maze Dungeon is a dungeon beneath the Lava Maze in fairly high level Wilderness (level 41-47).

The dungeon is split in two areas. The main western area, accessible only by members, is reached through the eastern entrance in the middle of the Lava Maze and contains several monsters. The smaller eastern area of the dungeon, accessible by free players, is reached through the western entrance found west of the maze, in a metal-fenced area, and contains Poison spiders and the lever to enter the King Black Dragon Lair.

Trivia

• Although the western surface entrance is used to reach the poison spider area and lever to the King Black Dragon Lair, on the map this area appear to be in the eastern part of the dungeon. Similarly, eastern surface entrance appears to lead to the western part of the dungeon. This reversal is similar to some of the entrances to the Ardougne Sewers. This is due to an error with the RuneScape Classic map editor inverting maps and when some dungeons were remade in RuneScape 2 they were made according to how they were originally orientated in the map editor. For this reason the Lava Maze lines up properly in RuneScape Classic compared to the overworld, but not in RuneScape 3.
• There used to be a single runite rock in the larger part of the dungeon.
• The concept for the lava isle may have come from the short story "The Rule of Names" when the author states, "Then from somewhere away out in the West Reach, where dragons breed on the lava isles, came one day a very mighty dragon. Not one of those overgrown lizards most of you Outer Reach folk call dragons, but a big, black winged, wise, cunning monster, full of strength and subtlety, and like all dragons loving gold and precious stones above all things"
