One of the most important principles of Bukovel is environmental friendliness. Not only it is important to contribute to the region's development and improve the well-being of Ukrainians, but also to protect the treasure of nature. Therefore, the resort is actively working to integrate the principles of sustainable development. In order to preserve the unique ecosystem and contribute to the development of the region, Bukovel has joined the international Green Destination certification program.
One of the key areas of activity within the framework of Green Destination is participation in the international Green Key environmental program, which certifies hospitality establishments which adhere to high standards of sustainable development.
Green Key is a global initiative encouraging environmental management of tourist infrastructure. In 2024, our partner hotels Bukovel Hotel and Bukovel Apart joined the program. Green Key certificates confirm that these establishments meet international standards in energy efficiency, water conservation, waste reduction, responsible use of environmentally-friendly materials.
Not only do we implement environmental initiatives into the operation of our hotels, but also encourages other local businesses to adhere to sustainable development standards. The resort offers educational programs on ecology, step-by-step plans for implementing eco-standards, and support in passing the Green Key certification.
Why is this important? The environmental friendliness is vital for further development of our region. Compliance with Green Key standards helps reduce the impact of tourism on the environment and maintain a balance between the economic development and the preservation of natural resources. Our own example proves that combining high service standards and environmental responsibility is achievable!
