It's an ideal starting point for walks to the surrounding mountains, since our camp is located close to the Chornohora mountain range, Hrynyava Mountain Meadows and Kukul-Kostrycha massif. From the height of mountain meadows you can enjoy a marvelous view of the highest mountains of the Chornohora. The peaks of Pip Ivan and Smotrych are wonderful viewing platform of all neighboring mountains and even Romanian border. While trekking you will have a unique opportunity to discover everyday life of hutsul shepherds, observe the process of cheese cooking, and try just-cooked budz. Pip Ivan will open for you remnants of old Polish observatory, under the mountain you will find a picturesque Maricheika Lake. There is no necessity in carrying heavy backpack since all extra things will remain in our rafting camp. All you need to take with you is raincoat and snack. Rafting and jeeping will make your trip more exciting and interesting. Conquering Hoverla (2061 m), the highest peak of Ukraine, ends the tour.
