The Zhupanova Rive
The Zhupanova River

Fat Kamchatka RainbowThe Zhupanova River was first floated and fished by Ouzel in 1993. Being a medium to large sized river with beautiful scenery and great fishing makes the Zhupanova a terrific choice.

Huge runs of arctic Char and many large Rainbows inhabit it's underwater habitat. Kundzha and many Salmon including an excellent Silver run are found in its waters.

The upper river has little drop of shelves, shallow waterfalls, and deep channels in the rock riverbed.

Mid - river runs deep with few obstructions, mostly on channel.Russian Rainbow Trout There are island and side streams to fish. Down river the Zhupanovsky volcano looms snowcapped in the distant landscape. There is a large rapid, which adds to the mix.

Ouzel Expeditions has floated the Zhupanova from its headwaters to the ocean. Its a beauty.
