Big Volcano package
Kamchatka Big Volcano - the only week in a season for expert's riding
Our goal is to land on the very top of the biggest volcanos, ski the steepest couloirs and ride the longest runs in small groups of expert skiers only
Once a year, when spring comes to Kamchatka, we have the ideal conditions for descents from top of volcanos and riding the steepest slopes. This journey reserved for the experts. You will have a chance to ride challenging lines, not skiable during the rest of the season.
North and south faces of the Koryakski volcano (3456m), the southern slopes of Zhupanovski volcano (2960m.), the active crater of Avachinsky volcano (2700m), east couloirs of Aag volcano (2310m), Opala volcano (2475m) and Viluchinskiy volcano (2175m.).

Safety and group
Given the fact that most of the runs requires very high technical level both riders and the pilots, we set a higher standard of safety program.
- we split in two subgroups of 5 skiers and 2 guides each
- we have an additional satellite phone Iridium
- we have an expanded set of climbing and resque equipment on board
- we are working on reduced fuel supply (to facilitate flights to the high altitude)
Flight time calculation
The flight time included into the package is the minimum time we will need to run the base part of the discovery jorney. Given the fact that we meet very good weather and snow conditions, we might be able to use up to 15 hours.
Additional helicopter time
Once you have spent the hours included in the package, it’s up to you if you like to continue. The additional time will be charged at the end of your stay. Additional flight time is 350euro per person per hour (based on a group of 10 persons).
Refunds unused time
10 hours included into the package are guaranteed. You will be refunded 330euros per person for each hour unused due to bad weather conditions or helicopter technical problems.
