Ski holidays in Kamchatka

In contrast to the usual off-trail skiing, heli-skiing is downhill skiing reached by helicopters. The skiing areas are picturesque untouched territories of Kamchatka, the most remote peaks and long descents, which are hard to reach in another way.

 

 

You will go skiing down the slopes of the mountains, as well as to the coast of the Pacific ocean, to the crater of an active volcano and to the wild hot springs
