Krasheninnikov, Stratovolcano in Kronotsky Nature Reserve, Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia.
Krasheninnikov consists of two connected volcanic cones with separate summit craters, rising 1,856 meters above the eastern coast of Kamchatka Peninsula.
The southern cone formation started 11,000 years ago over 4,500 years, followed by the northern cone development through comparable geological processes.
The volcano bears the name of Stepan Krasheninnikov, a Russian explorer who documented the natural features of Kamchatka during the 18th century.
Visitors need specialized permits to enter the Kronotsky Nature Reserve and should arrange transportation through authorized tour operators in Kamchatka.
The volcano contains three cinder cones at its caldera bottom, with additional three on southeastern outer slopes and one positioned north.
