Helicopter tour: Valley of Geysers, Nalychevsk thermal springs, Uzon volcano caldera

Kamchatka's Valley of Geysers is unique, because in the small canyon of the Geysernaya River there are numerous thermal springs, mud boilers, waterfalls and, of course, bursting geysers, bubbling and exploding with crushing streams of water and steam!

Not far from the Valley of Geysers is the Uzon volcano caldera, an equally impressive and amazing place. The caldera was formed as a result of the collapse of the walls of an ancient volcano, and hydrothermal activity is very pronounced at its bottom.

After admiring the geysers, you will visit the Nalychevskaya Valley and swim in natural hot springs.
