Volcanoes are those natural formations that are always sitting to themselves with thrills of sharp sensations. However, they are alone of the most hard-to-reach places on Earth, and if you still add a complex Antarctic climate to this place, it turns out that it is the ice towers and the caves of Erebus are an unattainable dream for most tourists.

At the same time the most interesting tourist Moz It is not even the tops themselves of the Erebus volcano, which rise up 4 kilometers, and lava Lake Volcanoes and ice caves on its slopes. Lava in this lake is unique and nowhere to find it in the world.

In addition to the caves, one of the most interesting phenomena is ice chimneys on the slopes of the volcano. They are formed in the output process underground caves Steam air vapors that contact with a forty-graduate frosty antarctic climate build up these chimneys.

Already, it is already possible to say with confidence that this cave is the deepest in the American continent. The cave falls under the ground down to a depth of up to 500 meters, and the overall length of its underground strokes exceeds 150 kilometers.

This ecosystem is unique in that the cave in the underground strokes and grumps there is a special world in fact fully isolated from the outside world, sunlight and everything that is on the surface of the Earth.

And although there is no "direct exit" to the underground kingdom, as opposed to the cave, it is not here, since it is located in the mountains at 2256 meters, but the path itself more than two kilometers in itself is a unique natural phenomenon.

The cave opened more than fifty years ago in the area of \u200b\u200bOrto-Balagan's tract, and for a long time she was considered a superficial with depth to one hundred meters. While it was not to explore numerous expeditions, each of which, reaching the mark at 210, 340, 710 meters, did not declare the end of the length of the moves.

The territory of this reserve is divided into two parts with the upper and lower lakes, connected by magnificent cascades of waterfalls. Moreover, no one knows the exact number of these waterfalls, because every year, nature creates new cascades.

All this is due to the complete non-interference in the ecosystem of lakes and all sticks and branches, which fall into the water, are never removed from it, and subsequently, under the influence of limestone fossy and become a barrier on the way of water, forming a new cascade of waterfalls. Such a number of limestone forms not only bizarre outs and calcium deposits, but gives water a delightful blue view with a greenish tint.
