The Valley of Geysers, Kamchatka, Russia

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : In this video, you'll get a bird's eye view of the world's second largest geyser field. Appropriately enough, it's called Geyser Valley, and it's situated on the gigantic Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia's Far East. Geyser Valley hosts close to 100 active geysers plus numerous hot springs. Vision One flew a DJI drone over much of this amazing field to create an incredible bird's eye view of a geological wonder in the eastern reaches of Siberian Russia. Much of the field is part of a UNESCO World Heritage site.

The Valley of Geysers (Russian: Долина гейзеров) is a geyser field on Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia, and has the second largest concentration of geysers in the world. This 6 km (3.7 mi) long basin with approximately ninety geysers and many hot springs is situated on the Kamchatka Peninsula in the Russian Far East, predominantly on the left bank of the ever-deepening Geysernaya River, into which geothermal waters flow from a relatively young stratovolcano, Kikhpinych. It is part of the Kronotsky Nature Reserve, which, in turn, is incorporated into the World Heritage Site "Volcanoes of Kamchatka". The valley is difficult to reach, with helicopters providing the only feasible means of transport. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valley_of_Geysers
