概要
クイックファクト: 鮮やかな黄色、オレンジ、エメラルドグリーンの鉱物の縞模様が、蒸気を上げる噴気孔や泡立つ泥の池を縁取り、鋭い硫黄の香りが風に漂う。適切に配置された木製の遊歩道と短いループトレイルにより、訪問者は脆い地殻を踏まずに、シューという音を立てる噴気孔や泥の池に驚くほど近づくことができる。
見どころ: 約2キロメートルのコンパクトなループが、活発な蒸気噴気孔から3～5メートル以内を通り抜け、蒸気の噴出は沸点近くに達し、明るい鉱物の染みを残す。地元のガイドはしばしば、鉄酸化細菌とシアノバクテリアと呼ばれる細菌マットを指さす。これらは排水路をさびた赤やネオングリーンに染め、40°Cから80°Cの水の中で繁殖しており、そのミネラルの香りを間近で嗅ぐことができる。
インサイダーヒント
- 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.
