Chernogora Mountain MassifThe inspiration that the picturesque landscapes of the Ukrainian Carpathians give is the inspiration from the incredible beauty of the panoramas that open to the eye. Many tourists, who prefer the unity with nature and health-improving vacation in ecologically clean natural areas to rest on the cramped beaches of foreign countries, go here for it — to the Chernogora mountain range, considered the most beautiful in Ukraine.

Mountain massif Chernogora — it is breathtaking and astounding mountain landscapes, vast expanses and the highest peaks of the country. All Ukrainian two-thousanders are concentrated exactly on the Chernogorsky range — it is the highest massif in Ukraine. The six highest points of the country, headed by Hoverla (2061 m), are the most interesting tourist routes, traveling which you can feel all the majesty, boundlessness of imagination and beauty of Mother Nature.

The Chernogora mountain range stretches for 40 kilometers The Chernogora mountain range stretches for 40 kilometers in length from northwest to southeast between the valleys of the rivers Cernaya Tisa and Cherniy Cheremosh. The ridge is divided into 2 parts — western and eastern. The peaks of the first are the fourth highest point of the country Mount Petros (2020 m) and Sheshul (1726 m). In the eastern part of the ridge are concentrated the other five two-thousanders — in addition to Hoverla, they are Breniebeskul (2032 m), Pop Ivan (2022 m), Gutin-Tomnatek (2016 m) and Rebra (2004 m).

Chernogora is located within the Transcarpathian and Ivano-Frankivsk regions of Ukraine, where there are many ancient villages and towns that have preserved the ancient sights and culture of the indigenous people of the Ukrainian Carpathians — the Hutsuls. This is where you can get acquainted with the ancient customs and traditions of the mountaineers of the Carpathians — an amazing and interesting people. The village of Yasinya is one of the most popular among tourists starting points to the peaks of Chernogora. That is why vacation in Yasinja, lost among the boundless mountain expanses, is now chosen by many guests of the region and the country.

Chernogora mountain rangeThe Chernogora range offers a variety of landscapes — from ancient beech forests covering the foothills of the mountains and alpine meadows covering their peaks, to picturesque high-altitude lakes and bizarre rocks. Lakes Brebeneskul (the highest lake in the country at an altitude of 1,801 meters), Breskul, Nesamovitoe, Marichejkaand other bodies of water nestled on the slopes of the mountains — these are the real pearls of Montenegro, to see them tourists come here even from other continents, fascinated by legends and rumors about the indescribable beauty of «heavenly eyes». No less vivid impression is made by the rocks, whose shapes are sometimes so bizarre that it seems as if something extraterrestrial created them. Thus, the cliffs of Shpitsa in the tract of Gadjina have become a favorite place for photographers.

On the slopes and peaks of Chernogora there are also man-made sights of the Carpathians, worthy of attention. Among them is the high-mountain Polish observatory built in the early 20th century on Mount Pop Ivan, which resembles an ancient castle rather than a Soviet-era building, and together with the surrounding scenery makes an amazing picture.

The Montenegrin Ridge is a place popular among tourists, but left untouched by civilization. It is part of the large Karpatsky Reserve and is considered one of the most visited by tourists from all over the world attractions of Ukraine. Here you can climb to the tops of the mountains, travel along their picturesque slopes, see such panoramas that will be remembered for a lifetime — what is the starry sky on the background of the mountains pointing upwards! The most vivid impressions, the inspiration that only the unbridled beauty of wild nature can give to all tourists are waiting here.
