Floating. The Bystraya Malkinskaya River is the second longest river in Kamchatka. It flows through the valley between the Sredinny and Ganal ranges, cuts the Sredinny ridge and goes to the Western Kamchatka lowland. The rafting passes through picturesque places. At the beginning of the rafting, the current is calm, but as soon as the river turns into a narrow valley, clamped by water dividing ridges, its character changes - shivers, underwater rocks, rapids appear. Surrounding landscapes of wildlife also change - majestic mountain landscapes are replaced by plains. Throughout, you can fish for char, fillets, grayling and salmon. During the spawning season, there is a high probability of encountering a brown Kamchatka bear.
