Seasons
Season 1
A land of fire and ice, the volcanic peninsula of Kamchatka lies in Russia’s far east. With the land constantly being reworked by eruptions and landslides, this far-flung part of the country is dangerous, but incredibly fertile. Heading right into this magical land, this stunning film follows soaring golden eagles, scavenging wolverines, young red foxes and local brown bears partial to a dip in a natural hot spring.
Season 2
In far eastern Russia lies the legendary Kamchatka Peninsula, a remote haven between the Sea of Okhotsk to the west and the Pacific Ocean to the east. From volcanoes to endless shorelines, most of Kamchatka is a pristine wilderness, rich with huge bears and plentiful salmon, preserved by its remoteness…perched on the edge of the world.
