O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Žive žute, narandžaste i smaragdne mineralne pruge oivičuju dimne fumarole i ključajuće blato, dok oštar sumporni miris ostaje u zraku. Dobro postavljene drvene staze i kratke kružne staze omogućavaju posjetiocima da se iznenađujuće približe šištajućim otvorima i blatnim loncima, bez koraka po krhkoj kori.
Istaknuto: Kompaktna staza dužine oko 2 kilometra prolazi 3 do 5 metara od aktivnih para, gdje izboji pare mogu dosegnuti blizu tačke ključanja i ostavljati svijetle mineralne mrlje. Lokalni vodiči često pokazuju bakterijske tepihe zvane željezo-oksidirajuće i cijanobakterije koje boje otjecanje u hrđavo crveno i neonski zeleno, rastući u vodi između 40 i 80°C toliko blizu da možete osjetiti miris minerala.
Insajderski savjeti
- Wear sturdy waterproof boots and a windproof jacket, geothermal spray and strong winds are common.
- Stay strictly on the marked boardwalks, ground off the paths can be dangerously unstable and hot.
- For the best photos, use the elevated boardwalk that looks over the main fumarole field during golden hour.
- Avoid the midday crowds by visiting at opening or late afternoon, and skip small roadside pools that lack color.
