Description

The Hephaestus volcano is a mud volcano, the eruptions of which generate hilly mud. These muds have become a popular remedy for the treatment of various diseases due to the content of beneficial substances such as sulfur, carbon dioxide, hormone-like elements and phytoncides. Penetrating through the skin, these substances enhance the vital functions of the body, helping to fight inflammatory processes and remove harmful substances from it.

To get to the mud volcano Hephaestus, you should go to the southeast of the Taman Peninsula. A popular option for starting the excursion is the city of Termyuk, where all routes to the volcanic mud begin. It is possible to use your own car. At the foot of the volcano there are parking lots and cafes for a comfortable stay.

Despite the unsteadiness of the soil, the Hephaestus mud volcano attracts many tourists. Here you can have a great time, immersing yourself in mud baths and feeling something similar to weightlessness. The variety of shades of mud - from gray to greenish - makes the place unique. There are showers and storage rooms near the volcano, but most people prefer to take a dip in the lake.

The mud volcano Hephaestus promises an unforgettable experience with its unique landscapes, fabulous lake and the opportunity to dive into mud baths.
