Where to Go at Kamchatka

| Paratunka – the village near Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky city famous for the hot water springs. |  |
| Hot Springs at Mutnovskaya Thermal Geyser Station — more accessible than the Geyser Valley as you don't need a helicopter to get there. The advantage is that it's still a pretty wild place, so unlike New Zealand or Iceland (where you have to walk around in designated areas on the wooden p athways) you can feel yourself right in the middle of the action. Watch out though as it's hot springs after all. |
