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.
