Vorovskaya River is flowing into the Sea of Okhotsk through the birch forests of the western Kamchatka. The river hosts stocks of all 6 species of Pacific salmon, Dolly Varden and white-spotted charrs, and rainbow trout.
Grassy jungle along the river hide trails of brown bears
Cherry salmon in Kamchatka is always small - as big as pink salmon
This male of cherry salmon is beginning to gain spawning colors
Rainbow trout is plentiful in the river; its average size is not big
An attempt to land chum salmon with light tackle could cost you a rod
In the middle reaches of the river there are lots of braids and log jams. It is is dangerous to navigate the Vorovskaya even with a jet-motor. Lots of narrow channels are blocked by the logs.
Upper part of the river has bigger gradient (over 0,002); log jams are also present here.
We have decided not to go upstream from these rapids
