OK, 44 views no answers. Time for another hint.
The access is by cable car which rises the best part of a km and the cable car station is halfway ( or so) between the 2 main cities in this country.

Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

You have narrowed it down. Need the name of the mountain or the crater, bonus points for both.

This volcano erupted significantly a couple of years back.
I climbed up to this spot from walking among the steam vents along the crater plateau below.
I doubt that option is accessible to the general public any longer.
