The Carpathians are always about mountains, misty peaks, wooden houses among fir trees, and ancient traditions that have lived here for centuries. A trip to the heart of Hutsulshchyna is not just a vacation, but an opportunity to touch the culture, nature, and history of this unique region. Read on to find out more about the real adventures, places of power and breathtaking panoramas that await travellers on this tour.
Vorokhta and Verkhovyna: the authentic heart of Hutsulshchyna
The tour begins with an introduction to Verkhovyna and Vorokhta, small towns that have preserved the atmosphere of authentic Hutsul life. Here, tourists will learn about traditional crafts, see ancient musical instruments, touch the secrets of the molfars, and feel the spirit of the legendary ‘Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors.’ Picturesque passes, wooden churches, and the hospitality of the locals create a special atmosphere that will be remembered for a long time.
Dovbush Trail and climb to Mount Makovytsia
The next stage of the journey takes you to the world of legends and Carpathian outlaws.
During a walk along forest paths, tourists will follow the road that, according to legend, was walked by Oleksa Dovbush himself. And the ascent to the top of Mount Makovytsia will reward them with magnificent views — the green ridges of the Carpathians stretching to the horizon will remain forever in the hearts of everyone who has seen them with their own eyes.
