Klyuchevskoy nature park

The park extends across 376,000 hectares and contains 13 volcanoes, including the Klyuchevskaya Sopka, which reaches a height of 4,750 meters.

The Russian exploration of this volcanic region began in the 17th century, leading to permanent settlements and scientific research stations in the 18th century.

Indigenous Koryak and Itelmen communities maintain their traditions of sustainable living near the park, practicing seasonal hunting and fishing activities.

Visitors can reach the park through the villages of Klyuchi and Kozirevsk, with transportation arrangements available from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky regional capital.

The park contains 47 glaciers covering 269 square kilometers, creating a network of waterfalls and rivers between the volcanic formations.
