Siberia's Wild Kamchatka: Volcanoes, Geysers & Calderas

Travelers on MIR’s small group tour, “Remote Russia: Yakutia & Kamchatka" ((https://goo.gl/Xr4T7R) explore the rugged, remote Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia’s Far East (http://goo.gl/uwNGy3). It's situated atop the Pacific Ring of Fire, and studded with several hundred active and dormant volcanoes. A tour highlight is helicoptering past towering volcanoes and into the remote Valley of Geysers and Uzon Caldera, with thermal hot springs, mud pots, and nearly 100 geysers – second in number only to Yellowstone National Park.

Off-limits to foreigners during Soviet times, Kamchatka Peninsula is one of the world’s wildest natural settings –an exciting off-the-beaten-path adventure for intrepid travelers. MIR's tour also explores Yakutia, where more than 40% of the land sits above the Arctic Circle. This is the land of mammoths, diamonds, UNESCO-listed 650-feet-tall Lena Pillars, and Yakutsk – the world's largest city built on permafrost.
