A very active tour of Kamchatka

It's time to look at the ancient fire—breathing dragons that have been sleeping (but sometimes waking up) in Kamchatka for centuries - volcanoes!

Transfer to Gorely volcano (about 3-4 hours), ascent to the volcano. On the way, we will stop at the Vilyuchinsky pass — from here you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Vilyuchinsky volcano.

The height of Gorely volcano is 1829 m. The volcano's caldera stretches for 13 km, here we will climb three large volcanic cones, one of which houses a turquoise acid lake, and the others have fumarolic activity.

The ascent and descent take about 4-5 hours. It is believed that this is one of the most accessible volcanoes for tourists, but it should be borne in mind that any uphill climb can be difficult for a person with low physical activity in everyday life.

Let's have a bite and head back to the city.

According to weather conditions, if the top of Gorely volcano is covered with clouds, the guide may decide to change the plan for today and visit another location (Vilyuchinsky Waterfall, Small "valley of geysers", Mutnovskaya Geothermal station, caves of Gorely volcano, etc.).

Mutnovskaya geothermal power plant is a geothermal station, where electricity is extracted from the energy of volcanoes, the station provides 20% of all electricity in the Kamchatka Territory.

An interesting place in a picturesque mountain valley, where artificial geysers - columns of steam — burst out of the ground here and there with great pressure. You can walk past the station along the path to the "Small Valley of Geysers" — in fact, this is an active fumarole field, the hot gases of which warm up the cold water of a mountain stream, as a result of which you can observe fountains of hot water and steam and an interesting almost lifeless multicolored landscape.

On the way to Gorely volcano, 8 km round trip, climb (and then reset) 750 m.

Meals included: breakfast, lunch-lunchbox.

Transfer by all—terrain vehicle to Mutnovsky volcano - here we will take a walk along the edge of the volcano crater! If there is no low clouds, we will see the oldest traces of eruptions, a fumarole field, acid yellow from sulfur, where the earth is warm and humming underfoot due to steam escaping from fumaroles under enormous pressure, we will look at a volcanic lake and an active funnel.

Then we will go to the waterfall in the Dangerous Canyon on the Vulkannaya River, where an 80-meter waterfall pours its waters from the colorful and multi-layered walls of the gorge.

According to weather conditions, if there is low cloud cover and too much snow (this may be in late July — early August, which will make it difficult to travel even for off-road transport), the guide may decide to change the plan for today and visit another location (Vilyuchinsky Waterfall, Small "valley of geysers", Mutnovskaya Geothermal Station, caves of Gorely volcano).

Since the Mutnovsky volcano is very active, sometimes the Ministry of Emergency Situations closes the trail along its slopes, so the program of this day could be changed.

There is a round trip to Mutnovsky volcano of 8 km, a climb (and then a reset) of 400 m.

Meals included: breakfast, lunch-lunchbox.

After breakfast, we will go to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky — take a walk along the embankment of Avacha Bay and visit souvenir shops from Kamchatka manufacturers.

And today we will get acquainted with another Kamchatka — oceanic — we will go to Halaktyrsky beach on the Pacific Ocean, interesting because the sand on it is black — volcanic in origin, and in clear weather the beach offers a beautiful view of the surrounding volcanoes... the blue waves of the Pacific Ocean, black sand and huge volcanoes on the horizon are difficult to squeeze in other words, what an amazing picture opens before our eyes on this coast of Kamchatka…

Here we will try to get on the board in a surfing lesson at one of the legendary Kamchatka surf schools, which receive servers from all over the world.

After surfing, we will go to the best thermal spa complex in Kamchatka - it is such a pleasure to relax in hot water after an active day!

Meals included: breakfast, lunch.

We continue the maritime history — we will go on a boat trip to Russian Bay.

From the pier of Avacha Bay, we will embark on an exciting journey along the rocky coastline of the Kamchatka Peninsula. Let's walk past the picturesque rocks of the Three Brothers, see the bird markets on the island of the Old Men. Here you can see chistikos, moevok, cormorants, hatchets, kair, old men (they live in holes dug in the ground). And on the high coastal cliffs, you can see the nests of the largest bird of prey — the white-shouldered eagle.

We have to reach the entrance to Russian Bay, where a large colony of sea lions — northern sea lions - lives on Cape Kekurny in summer. In July and August, there are very high chances of meeting whales and killer whales in the ocean.

If you wish, you can try sea fishing — there will be gear freely available on the ship.

Meals included: breakfast, lunch on a boat trip.

One of the most exciting and challenging adventures of our trip to Kamchatka: climbing the crater of the active Avacha volcano (2,741 m)! The way up takes 6-7 hours. If there are no low clouds, then on the crater we will have a great view of the surroundings: Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Avachinsky Bay, the Pacific coast, Nalychevskaya Valley, Koryaksky, Kozelsky, Zhupanovsky, Mutnovsky volcanoes.

Active activity does not stop in the crater, it smells of sulfur, fumaroles are floating, the earth is warm.

There is a round trip of 15 km, a set (and then reset) altitude of 1800 m.

Meals included: breakfast, lunch-lunchbox.

You need to rest (for those who need it). Or you can take advantage of your free time and choose an activity to suit your taste:

• a boat trip across the Pacific Ocean (fishing and lunch of freshly caught seafood are provided here, and there is also a chance to see whales, killer whales, sea lions and seals. In July and August, our participants on such excursions almost always meet whales and killer whales in Russian Bay);
