Expeditions in Alaska:

Alaska  offers incredible possibilities to learn about volcanos and the hiking possibilities are outstanding.

Alaska forms the northeastern edge of the "Ring of fire". Together with the Aleutian Islands Alaska hosts hundreds of volcanoes. We concentrated our expeditions to the "Valley of ten thousand smokes" (VTTS) - the site of the biggest eruption in the 20th century "Novarupta".
