Tour description

The Kamchatka peninsula lies nine time zones east of Moscow, jutting out into the northern Pacific. It has been considered so remote that it became known as Siberia’s Siberia. Connected to Asia by only a narrow bar of land covered with permafrost and swamps, it is almost impossible most of the year to reach Kamchatka by crossing that land bridge. Instead, access to Kamchatka is usually by air or ships crossing from the Asian mainland. It is easier to think of Kamchatka as an island, stretching from north to south for more than a thousand kilometers. The total land mass amounts to 472,000 square kilometers, equal to the territory of several European countries.

Kamchatka is a typical mountainous country with mountain ranges occupying more than two-thirds of the total territory. The main ridges - the Sredinny Ridge and Eastern Ridge - stretch parallel along the peninsula. The lowlands are mainly in the north and west of the peninsula, and there are picturesque valleys along the rivers.

Kamchatka is a zone of intensive volcanic activity with about 150 volcanoes, 28 of which are active. The Klyuchevskaya Sopka, the highest volcano in Asia (4,750 m), with its perfectly symmetrical slopes, is a magnificent sight. It is comparatively young - about 5,000 years old - and has been known to erupt some seven hundred times. Some volcanoes that have been considered extinct for centuries sometimes wake up and come to life. Scientists say that the force of a volcanic explosion can equal the annual amount of power produced by a big power station. The ejection of stones or volcanic “bombs” of different shapes, molten lava, gas and ash is often accompanied by earthquakes of different force.

The three volcanoes - the Avachinsky, Koryaksky and Kozelsky - are located within sight of the city of Petropavlovsk and are fondly called home volcanoes. Numerous tourists climb the Avacha throughout the year. Its summit commands a picturesque view of a typical Kamchatka landscape with snowy peaks of mountains glittering in the sun’s rays and blue of the boundless ocean. The latest eruption of Avacha occurred in 1991 when the residents of Petropavlovsk could watch puffs of gas, steam clouds and red-hot steams flowing down the slopes.
