We have carefully considered our weekly program in terms of both saturation and safety. Start packing your gear, we're ready!

It's important to know

What to do in bad weather in winter?

It all depends on how bad the weather is. 

Sometimes you can take an additional program with activities that do not include skiing or replace heli-skiing with snowmobile throws. 

If skiing is not possible, then there are options for sightseeing routes by snowmobile or by car. 

For those who are ready to experience an absolutely unforgettable experience, we offer surfing. 

When it remains possible to move around the city, we can offer a city tour and a visit to the Vulcanarium interactive site. 

If you can't go outside, then we have master classes on cooking Kamchatka delicacies, holding interesting meetings on the topic of Kamchatka travel, history, etc.
