The Kamchatka Peninsula has 29 active volcanoes, making it one of the most volcanically active places on Earth. Klyuchevskaya Sopka, the highest active volcano in Eurasia, erupts frequently. Ash clouds from Kamchatka’s volcanoes directly affect aviation, and the airport at Yelizovo operates with awareness that local eruptions can close the facility with little warning.
