Few days comfortable tourHot Springs of Kamchatka

The highlight of winter holidays in Kamchatka is hot springs, both wild and beautificated. You can get to most of the wild ones only by snowmobile, which makes the trip even more fun. You’ll see changing landscapes, snow-covered valleys and slopes, frosty air and, of course, natural baths with thermal water. Rest in hot water among the snowdrifts is relaxing and invigorating at the same time!

We’ll visit two groups of wild springs: Karymshinskiye and Verkhne-Paratunskiye. The Karymshinskiye are located in the center of an ancient extinct volcano. Hot water comes out of the well and assembles in a small bath. There are changing rooms and a pond with cool water near the thermal ground. The Verkhne-Paratunskiye springs are situated on the slope of the Goryachaya Hill. Hot water breaks out of rock cracks, merges into streams and falls into natural baths by warm waterfalls.

Beside hot springs we’ll visit the crater of volcano Mutnovsky, where you can see the thermal activity in all its glory. The volcano, like a giant steam engine, works without ceasing: it boils with mud pots, emits gases and huge columns of steam! In winter you can climb to the crater directly on snowmobiles.
