Breakfast at the hotel.
An off-road trip through the Vilyuchinsky pass, the plateau of the Gorely volcano, to the Mutnovsky volcano area. The purpose of our trip today will be the Summer springs, an active geo–thermal plateau.
Easy trekking with small ascents and descents to the valley of Summer springs (about 2 km in one direction). A walk among various thermal phenomena that will be practically under our feet in maximum proximity - boiling boilers, hot springs, large and small steam-gas jets, small waterfalls.
Red-hot steam roars right out of the ground, enveloping the yellow-red stones and the green slopes of the valley. Everything is hissing, whistling, bubbling. There are also bubbling gray puddles with viscous boiling water, fountains of hot springs, tunnels.
The country springs are called the Small Valley of Geysers, but there are no real geysers here – not boiling water, but hot gas that heats the water on the surface, imitating a geyser.
Let's go to the new active zone that appeared in 2024, creating a new landscape.
Return to the car, in a quiet place in the valley of the stream, we will have a picnic lunch: lunch box, hot tea.
On the way back, we will stop and walk (about 500-700 m) to another picturesque location – a 16-meter waterfall on the Calm Stream, which is called the "Snow Leopard" waterfall.
Approximately by 3 p.m., we will return to the hotels to change clothes, if necessary, and go to dinner at the ethno-camp of the indigenous people of Kamchatka.
Eyvet is the ancestral community of the Pritchin family, in which the traditional way of life of the Koryak people is closely intertwined with modern life.
The family contains 80 sled dogs and their world is an extreme marathon sled dog race "Beringia", "Avacha", the purpose of which is to preserve the unique performance characteristics of Kamchatka sled dogs.
The owners of the community will share their experience, history and taste of cooking delicious dishes of the Koryak ethnic group.
Let's get acquainted with the main business of Aveta's life — modern sled dogs. Can they think? Why are archaic wooden sleds and harnesses used in riding? How can a racer and dogs "not end" when the training plan for the season is 3,000 km?
Then we will visit the chum salmon spawning ground, on the shore of which the community lives, find out where the salmon in the rivers comes from, and why not all fish can be eaten.
Next, we will have a real gastronomic adventure with immersion in the ethnic culture of the Kamchatka indigenous peoples — a food tour at the Eivet "Myths about Yukol".
The preface to the main course is served to guests: yukola, without which you cannot survive the winter — the only way to save tons of fish until next season in the absence of salt and refrigerators; snacks from wild plants (wild garlic, horsetail, young shoots of willow tea); snacks from sea cabbage; Aramaki - as a recipe appeared in Koryak cuisine 100 years ago the most delicate fish; seal fat — why no traveler went on the road without a decent piece of seal fat; bread made from nettles; vegetable snacks; berry juice, tincture of honeysuckle.
The story and tasting are accompanied by the aromas of cooking the main dish of fish on an open fire, which is served on the table on a birch board immediately from the hearth.
