Avachinsky volcano - "Kamchatka Vesuvius"

The pure light of the sun falls on a harsh face. A rare gust of wind will lift volcanic sand around, but his clothes are still motionless. No wonder they're stone. The sculptor who carved this monument is called the Avachinsky volcano, and its offspring is called the Gendarme. And stands Gendarme for many centuries at an altitude of 2000 meters, and looks at the formidable volcano Koryaksky.

An interesting start to an unusual story, isn’t it? And indeed, the history of the Avachinsky volcano is quite unique, because at one time its summit was conquered by the famous writer Arkady Strugatsky, and the structure of the volcano belongs to the same type as Vesuvius. You can learn even more interesting information about Avachinsky by taking part in an unforgettable trip to the crater of an active volcano. It has stood here for thousands of years and for thousands of years it has created a legend. Are you ready? Great! Let's go then!

You will see a lava plug with the release of hot gases, a fumarole field with sulfurous deposits.

You will find a panoramic, unforgettable view, including the mainland of Kamchatka, neighboring and distant volcanoes, because in clear weather visibility from the top exceeds 200 km.

Part of the way to the volcano passes along the "Dry River". This is not only a place filled with beautiful landscapes, ash factions and canyons formed from the descent of mudflows and pressures of melt water, but also a unique phenomenon of Kamchatka nature. Here, in the products of volcanic activity, you can easily find Chrysolite (Olivin) and other interesting minerals.

From the top of the Avachinsky volcano there is a beautiful view of the Nalychev valley, volcanoes of the Zhupanovsky group, Kozelsky volcano and the endless Pacific Ocean.
