Kuril Lake is the soul of the peninsula, surrounded on all sides by majestic cones of volcanoes. Among the picturesque corners of Kamchatka, the lake undoubtedly occupies one of the first places. It was formed more than 8,000 years ago as a result of a powerful eruption. It is located on the territory of the South Kamchatka State Nature Reserve at an altitude of 103 m above sea level. The maximum depth is 306m. The largest herd of sockeye salmon in Eurasia enters the lake to spawn. The main fishermen in the Kuril Islands are brown bears. At the height of spawning on the shores it becomes crowded with clubfoot, the local grouping is the largest in Russia.
An observation tower has been built near the lake, from where you can safely observe and take pictures of an amazing picture – bear fishing.
The Ksudach volcano is one of the most grandiose objects in Kamchatka, declared a natural monument of landscape and geological nature. There are several lakes in the caldera. The largest is the Key Lake, measuring 3x4 kilometers and about 90 meters deep. In the northern part of the caldera rises the crater of Stubel, which is also filled with a lake. The sheer walls of the crater drop steeply into the water of the lake.
Khodutkin thermal springs - are located in one of the most beautiful places in Kamchatka - at the foot of the extinct volcanoes Priemysh and Khodutka. Located in the crater of a volcanic explosion, these are one of the largest sources in Kamchatka. The water flowing from the numerous griffins gathers into one stream.
