Top 5 places in Kamchatka. A comfortable tour

The beginning of the informative part of the tour is dedicated to climbing to the craters of the Gorely volcano.

This hill is located not so far from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky and is a popular tourist attraction. 

Together with the volcanoes Vilyuchinsky, Mutnovsky and Asacha, Gorely forms a single impressive massif. 

The ascent of the volcano follows a route that has been repeatedly traveled by different people. 

It is not complicated and is accessible even to children. Impressions remain for a long time. 

Gorely lives its volcanic life, and its various manifestations are available for review. 

Tourists will feel the smell of sulfur in the air, see firsthand clouds of steam and smoke escaping from the craters. 

At the top, the most exciting part of the program begins — an overview of the craters. 

You will see the acid lake of the Active crater, fumaroles — sulfur dioxide outlets, the largest and most beautiful crater "Blue Lake" and other craters of interesting shapes.

The pace of ascent is convenient for everyone, so even people who are not particularly physically prepared are able to reach the desired height and admire the views. 

In the evening, the group returns to the hotel.

This day is dedicated to a water trip. 

The Bolshaya River flowing through Kamchatka has a tributary, the Bystrica River, whose length is 270 meters. 

It is famous for its interesting terrain and attracts rafting enthusiasts. 

Professionals choose the most difficult and stormy areas, but we offer our guests a calm rafting, coupled with fishing.

We fully take care of the equipment.

Tourists, having previously been instructed and dressed in life jackets, get into inflatable rafts, our experienced instructor guides are at the oars. 

They guide the boats along the water surface at low speed so that travelers can calmly admire the magnificent landscape, notice the animals, and take pictures of everything. 

The Bystraya basin is famous as a salmon spawning area. 

Millions of valuable fish come here every season to leave their offspring.

The beginning of the route is the village of Malki, the end is the estuary of the Bolshaya River.

The whole way is surrounded by wild nature. 

This area is perfect for fishing, so tourists, armed with fishing rods, can catch excellent fish. 

There are a lot of char here all summer, chinook salmon are well caught in June and July, but August is especially rich in catch — fish, trout, grayling, and coho are on the hook. 

Far Eastern fishing does not leave anyone indifferent.

During a water trip, it should be remembered that any technical equipment is afraid of moisture, so it is better to get mini hermetic bags in which a camera or video camera will be stored. 

After a fruitful day, tourists return to the hotel.

This day is dedicated to the Avacha volcano. 

Tourists climb to its top. 

The route is more difficult than the ascent to Gorely and takes longer, so you need to prepare well.

After an early rise and breakfast at seven in the morning, the group leaves in the direction of Avacha hill. 

It arose more than ten thousand years ago as a result of a powerful eruption that blew apart the top of an old volcano that was located here earlier. 

A huge basin formed on the site of the exploded peak (caldera) became the base of a new cone, which became the Avacha volcano.

Climbing to its top does not require professional skills and special climbing equipment. 

The most gentle route has been chosen for tourists, but it is not easy either. 

Nevertheless, the guide chooses the most optimal paths and the speed that will suit all participants of the hike, including the elderly. 

Climbing higher and higher, tourists see an amazing panorama, including a view of the coastline of the Pacific Ocean, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. 

But the main thing is that the peaks of the neighboring mountains are getting closer.

Having reached the goal (it takes 5-6 hours), tourists survey the crater of the volcano. 

It is impossible to forget such a sight in your whole life. 

For this, it is worth overcoming the slopes of Avacha. 

The activity of the volcano appears in all its glory. 

In the center of the crater there is solidified lava, creating fantastic outlines. 

Fumaroles smoke on the slopes.

After a rest and a snack, the travelers begin the descent. 

It is easier than climbing, but it must be borne in mind that the fine slag that you have to walk on can get into your shoes and rub your feet. 

Therefore, it is necessary to be shod correctly, to have high gaiters. 

After the descent, tourists get into cars and go to the recreation center for the night.

In June, climbing the Avacha volcano can be replaced by trekking at the foot with an ascent to Mount Camel.
In tours with dates September 08-14, September 15-21, September 22-28, the ascent of the Avacha volcano is replaced by trekking at the foot with an ascent to Mount Camel.

Tourists take a sea cruise along Avacha Bay with a visit to the island of Starichkov and Russian Bay. 

This trip will take about 10 hours, during which the tour participants will see stunning pictures of nature. 

Leaving Avacha Bay by boat, you can admire the mountain landscape from a new angle, from the sea.

It is impossible not to pay attention to the rocks "Three Brothers", which, like guards, stand at the entrance to the bay. 

An ancient legend is connected with them, which the guide will certainly tell you about.

Birds fly over the bay, snatching fish right out of the water. 

The closer to the island of the Old Men, the more different birds there are, and on the island itself there is their noisy residence. 

This is a protected area where bird markets and pinniped rookeries are located. 

You can admire the animals only from afar, landing on the island is prohibited.

You can also look at the rookeries of sea lion and cleaver at Cape Kekurny, which the boat passes on its way to Russian Bay.

This bay used to be called Ahomen in Itelmen. 

It was renamed in 1952. 

Its peculiarity is its very convenient location and security, which makes it a reliable haven for ships. 

Back in the XVIII century, sailboats hid here from the storm. 

During the Second World War, a naval base was located in this bay. 

In addition to its strategic importance, the bay also has aesthetic significance. This is one of the most beautiful places in Kamchatka. 

Being here, people truly experience catharsis. 

Directly above the bay there is a lake with a high content of silver in the water — another unique touch to the palette of Kamchatka nature.

In the bay area, whales and killer whales can sometimes be seen swimming close enough for their fins to be visible above the water. 

And when these giants start tumbling, it's impossible to forget such a sight.

There is wonderful fishing in the bay. 

We equip tourists with the necessary gear, and they fish for dinner themselves, and after eating delicious fish soup and relaxing, they return to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.
