The Pauzhetsky springs are located in the river valley. Pauzhetki is a large left tributary of the river. They resemble miniature Geyser Valley sources - the same phenomena, but on a smaller scale. The sources were first described over 200 years ago by Stepan Petrovich Krasheninnikov. He noted that the keys "strike in many places such as fountains, mostly with great noise, a meter and a half tall." It had 2 geysers. With the start of the operation of the GeoES Pauzhetskaya, the activity of the geysers (old and new) has decreased. Externally, the geysers hardly differed from the pulsating sources and, of course, were inferior to the beauty of the geysers of the Geysernaya River. For example, the geyser does not have a new griffin; the water flows from a barely perceptible depression into a rough flood. Its cycle in 1965 was 30 hours; gushing period 45-60 minutes; the width of the boiling column of 0.4-0.5 m; the height of the water emissions is only 20-30 cm. He is obviously young but still a geyser, a direct relative of large and beautiful geysers located in the valley of the Geysernaya River!

On the key site of the Pauzhetian springs there are griffons in continuous boiling which launch jets of boiling water and steam up to a height of 1 m. The springs are surrounded by a thin geyserite crust.

Another 4 km and six are on Lake Kuril - the largest breeding ground for sockeye salmon in Eurasia, on whose banks you can meet the bears that fish in their natural habitat. With a supplement (payable in cash) It is possible to go to the lake with a boat.

After seeing the bears, you go to the natural monument - Kutkhina bata. These are pumice rocks created by wind, water and volcanic activity. Stepan Petrovich Krasheninnikov, who studied Kamchatka from 1737 to 1741, transmitted the story of Kamchatka Itelmen, who saw huge rock-shaped boats, the bats of the supreme deity Kutha, left to dry, and reminded the Cossack-pioneers of the shuttles.
