Lacs de Shatsk et Svitiaz : rechargez-vous au cœur de la nature de Polissya avec Visit Ukraine
Le lac Svityaz est l'endroit idéal pour se déconnecter de la vie quotidienne, s'immerger dans le silence de la nature et trouver l'harmonie avec soi-même. Ici, au milieu des forêts de Volhynie, chaque jour apporte de nouvelles expériences — de la détente sur la plage aux aventures en kayak. En savoir plus sur le voyage avec Visit Ukraine vers les lacs de Shatsk
In the middle of the picturesque forests of Volyn lies a real treasure of Ukrainian nature — Lake Svitiaz, the largest and deepest of the Shatsk Lakes. It attracts visitors with its crystal clear water, tranquillity, fresh air and that special feeling of harmony that is difficult to find in the city. Here, time slows down and everyday worries fade into the background.
Read on to find out what awaits tourists who set off on a journey with Visit Ukraine.
Svitiaz: a place of strength, relaxation and inspiration
The trip will last four days — enough time to truly experience the beauty of Ukrainian nature. Guests are met at the train station and immediately set to a relaxed pace — breakfast, transfer, and check-in at the recreation centre right on the shore of Lake Svitiaz.
There is no hustle and bustle here — only birdsong, the gentle lapping of the water and pine forests all around. The first day is for acclimatisation, relaxation, swimming and walks on the beach without any compulsory activities.
The Shatsk Lakes — the pearl of Volhynia
The next morning, those who wish can join a walking tour of the Shatsk National Nature Park. The route will take you through protected areas where nature has remained almost untouched. This is an opportunity to see unique water bodies and learn more about the rare plants and animals that inhabit this part of Polissya. But even without the excursion, the day will be full — swimming, sunbathing, relaxing in company or alone with nature.

Polissya jungle and kayaking
On the third day, a real adventure awaits guests — an optional kayaking trip across the Luky-Peremut lakes. This route is not called the ‘Polissya jungle’ for nothing — narrow waterways, green tunnels of reeds and floating islands create the impression of a real expedition into the wild. Tourists stop on Bazhan Island, where you can have lunch right in the middle of the lake. Natural exoticism, silence, the scent of the forest and the calm current are a completely new experience for everyone.
The last day — a quiet farewell
The end of the journey is back at the lake, with a few more warm waves, a little sun and a little bit of yourself.
No rush — breakfast, swimming, lunch, a few more hours to recharge before returning to the city. And only then — the transfer to Lutsk, the road home, impressions that will last a long time. The Shatsk Lakes are not just a destination for a trip, they are a place that restores.
And with a tour from Visit Ukraine, the trip becomes even more convenient, because everything is thought out to the smallest detail. Comfortable accommodation, a flexible programme, interesting excursions, time for yourself and the opportunity to see unique places without any extra hassle. Those who have already been there dream of returning. Those who are still planning — it's time to act.
