Bogdan Khmelnitsky volcano

The volcano is a huge cone-shaped mound, which consists mainly of basalts. This is the most common rock in the Kuril Islands. The height of the volcano is about 1500 meters. It received its name in honor of the great military commander Khmelnitsky. Near Bogdan Khmelnitsky there is another volcano - Chirip. Together they make up the two-humped ridge.

By the way, this merging of two hills is considered the most popular among tourists. People come here specifically to climb to the top and look at the Sea of Okhotsk from a bird's eye view. At the foot of the volcanoes there are many campgrounds that offer accommodation and all the necessary climbing equipment. During the climb there are already prepared places for rest.

So, at an altitude of 1000 meters on a hill there is Lake Lost. There you can make a stop and get fresh water. She won't meet anywhere higher. Although, many tourists do not disdain melt water from the glaciers, which at the top is very much.
