BUKOVYNA COGNITA

HIKING



The Bukovynian part of the Carpathians is famous for its incredibly beautiful nature and landscape variety. Travelling in this area you’ll meet green mountains, mixed forests full of mushrooms and berries, various rock formations, caves and grottos, waterfalls and rivers, as well as a number of mineral water sources. If you are lucky you’ll meet a roe deer, Carpathian squirrel, partridge or pheasant, fire salamander or Carpathian newt in the forest. Also you’ll become familiar with the culture and lifestyle of hutsuls, the traditional population of the Ukrainian Carpathians.

 

All this will leave plenty of positive impressions and interesting memories to you. You’ll know lots of new and interesting things, recreate yourself and take your mind off the city noise and troubles.
