Koryaksky or Koryakskaya Sopka (Russian: Коря́кская со́пка) is a volcano on the Kamchatka Peninsula in the Russian Far East. It lies within sight of Kamchatka Krai’s administrative center Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. Together with neighbouring Avachinsky it has been designated a Decade Volcano worthy of particular study in light of its history of explosive eruptions and proximity to populated areas.
