CHOISIR UN TOUR

Winter Ukraine is a combination of cosy towns, authentic traditions, hot thermal pools and incredible natural locations. Even in the cold season, there are many places where you can relax on a budget but in an atmospheric setting.

Where to go in winter and which locations are definitely worth your attention — we will tell you more in this article.

Thermal waters of Berehove and Kosyno

Transcarpathian thermal complexes in winter are a real relaxation salvation. Berehove has a famous thermal pool with mineral water, the temperature of which allows you to swim even in frosty weather. In Kosyno, there is a modern complex with geothermal pools, royal saunas, and unique features such as coffee- or wine-shaped jacuzzi fountains.

This type of vacation is suitable for both relaxation and health improvement, as the water in the region is rich in minerals and has healing properties.

By the way, you can visit thermal locations on the ‘Aqua Entertainment of Transcarpathia’ or ‘Relaxation Tour: Thermal Transcarpathia’ tours from Visit Ukraine. This is a great option for a winter trip.

Chernivtsi and Kamianets-Podilskyi

Chernivtsi looks especially festive in winter: the Residence of the Metropolitans of Bukovina, Kobylianska Street, ancient squares and European architecture create the atmosphere of a small Vienna. Kamianets-Podilskyi offers unforgettable emotions thanks to its mighty fortress above the Smotrytsky Canyon and the historic streets of the Old Town.

In January, traditional Malanka festivals are held here in Vashkivtsi and Krasnoilsk, which have long been a tourist attraction in Bukovina.

In addition, Chernivtsi and Kamianets-Podilskyi can be visited on the rich winter route ‘Chernivtsi, Kamianets-Podilskyi, Malanka celebrations in Vashkivtsi and Krasnoilsk’ from Visit Ukraine — an ideal option for those who want to see authentic Ukrainian traditions.

Lake Synevyr

Winter Synevyr is silence, snow on the peaks, crystal clear air and a panorama that is hard to tear yourself away from. The highest mountain lake in the Carpathians in winter looks like a fairy-tale illustration: wooden bridges, crunchy snow and fog over the water create an incredible atmosphere. Nearby, there is also a brown bear rehabilitation centre and several observation points offering magnificent views.

By the way, this location is best explored on the ‘Lake Synevyr, bears, mountains and more’ tour. It is a comfortable option for a physically easy but very atmospheric winter holiday.

Uzhhorod

In winter, Uzhhorod retains its warmth and cosiness. The old town, Austrian architecture, embankments along the Uzh River, Mukachevo Castle nearby, mini-sculptures and the smallest zoo in Ukraine create the feeling of a small winter Europe. In winter, it is quiet here, without crowds of tourists, and Transcarpathian cuisine makes the trip even more enjoyable.
