Trekking in Kamchatka

Mutnovzki Crater

The Kamchatka Peninsula stretches for 1000km and along its spine lie some of the world's most magnificent volcanoes. Many of these are active and some rise to well over 11,000 feet in height. One rough road serves the peninsula, thus many areas are very remote and can only be reached by helicopter, 4WD vehicle or on foot. Trekking here is an outstanding experience with a rich wildlife, salmon-filled rivers, campsites by hot springs or lakes, craters with fumaroles, steam jets, red-hot lavas and a wild coast line.
