Kudryavy volcano is located on the northeastern extremity of Iturup Island

The top of the Kudryavy cone is somewhat elongated in the latitudinal direction, and two craters are located on it.

Ash clouds, ash falls, pyroclastic flows, hot avalanches and lahars are a potential hazard associated with explosive eruptions of this volcano. The volcano poses a potential hazard to international and local airlines passing in the Kuriles region, since the height of its ash emissions can reach 10-15 km above sea level, ash plumes and clouds can drift hundreds of kilometers from the volcano in different directions.
