Top 5 places in Kamchatka. Comfortable tour

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

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

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 accessible even to children. Impressions remain for a long time.

Gorely lives its own 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 the 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, which flows through Kamchatka, has a tributary, the Bystrica River, which is 270 meters long.

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 relaxing rafting trip combined 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 instructors—guides are at the oars.

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

The Bystrica basin is famous as a salmon spawning area.

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

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

The whole journey is surrounded by wild nature.

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

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

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 air 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 wake-up and breakfast at 06:30 a.m., the group leaves in the direction of Avachinskaya Sopka.

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 suits all participants of the hike.

As tourists climb higher, they see an amazing panorama, including views of the Pacific Ocean coastline and Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.

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

After reaching the goal (it takes 8 hours), tourists survey the volcano's crater.

Such a sight is impossible to forget 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 is solidified lava, creating fantastic outlines.

Fumaroles smoke on the slopes.

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

It's easier than climbing, but you have to keep in mind that the fine slag you have to walk on can get into your shoes and rub your feet.

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

After the descent, tourists have dinner in the dining room, get in their cars and go to the recreation center for the night.

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 nature paintings.

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.

There is an ancient legend associated 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 see 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 special feature is its very convenient location and security, which makes it a reliable haven for ships.

Back in the 18th 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 silver content in the water — another unique touch to the palette of Kamchatka nature.

In the bay area, you can sometimes see whales and killer whales that swim close enough so that their fins are visible above the water.

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

There is excellent 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 back to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.

On the penultimate day before the end of the tour, guests are offered two routes to choose from: an excursion to the Valley of Geysers with a visit to Uzon volcano and Nalychevo thermal springs, as well as an excursion to Kuril Lake with a visit to Ksudach volcano and Khodutkin thermal waters. Both routes are long-distance and involve helicopter flights.

Please note that helicopter tours in Kamchatka are unsafe. This is evidenced by the aviation chronicles of 2024 and previous years. We recommend that you cancel the flight and consider other options for additional excursions.

A meaningful, varied tour is coming to an end. We say goodbye to the group, take our guests to the airport.

Departure to the airport — there will be 2 transfers for departure from the hotel: at 09:30 and 12:30 (check-out time). If possible, please take this point into account when buying tickets.
