Contact info

A journey that reveals the Carpathians through landscapes, culture and local flavours. A walk to a sheep farm, cheese tasting and lunch at the “Bokorash” restaurant create a complete Carpathian experience. An ideal format for those who want to discover the region in a single day.

Tour highlights:

  • Yablunytsia mountain pass – a panoramic location offering views of three mountain ranges at once: Chornohora, Svydovets and the Eastern Gorgany. On clear days, you can spot the highest peaks of the Ukrainian Carpathians.
  • Strukivska Church (Yasinia) – an 18th-century wooden church listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built without a single nail, it is a striking example of traditional Hutsul architecture with a unique origin story.
  • Trufanets Waterfall – one of the highest natural waterfalls in Zakarpattia (approx. 36 m). Cascading through the forest and visible directly from the road, it is one of the most accessible natural landmarks.
  • Rosenthal cheese manufacture (Kvasy) – a local producer combining Carpathian traditions with European techniques. Here, craft cheeses are made from local milk, and tastings allow you to explore a variety of flavours and styles.
  • Vaskul sheep farm – a scenic walk to a functioning mountain farm. Visitors can observe traditional rural life, sheep breeding and cheese-making, and experience authentic highland culture without staged tourism.
  • Restaurant “Bokorash” – the final stop, offering the flavours of the Carpathians. A cosy setting with mountain views, where Hutsul cuisine is presented in a modern interpretation – perfect for a relaxed end to the day.
  • Burkut spring – one of the best-known mineral water sources in Zakarpattia. Known since the 19th century, it features a distinctive composition and taste shaped by the depth of the mountain terrain.
