YAREMCHE[YAREMCHA, JAREMCHA, JAREMCZE]
Quick FactsThe most popular climatic resort in the Carpathian Mountains. Picturesque location, fresh air, peculiar cuisine. Should we say more?
Included in: "Zarvanytsya 2000" (brief description, detailed program), "The Ukrainian Center of Europe" (brief description, detailed program), "Grand Tour of Ukraine" (brief description, detailed program), "Super Grand Tour of Ukraine" (brief description, detailed program).
Places of InterestWalking tour to the Dovbush Rocks (about 3 km from the hotel), named after the "Ukrainian Robin Hood", Oleksa Dovbush, who used to have his shelter there. Climbing up the peak of the rocks - 800-m above the sea level. The groups are accompanied by experienced tour guides, familiar with escorting "city-people" in the mountains.Should you be interested in more "serious" mountain hiking in the area, please, check the recommendations by Joseph Hirniak.
Relaxing atmosphere of the resort!.
Side TripsDelyatynHoverla National Park. The section of the park open for public is about 50 km south of Yaremche (a nice scenic ride) and about 10 km east of the highest peak of the nation - Hoverla (2060 m above the sea level). Climbing the peak is not included in a standard visit, but from the parking lot tourists may have a pleasant walk through the beautiful forest untouched by civilization (this is one of the few places in the world where you can still find such rare plants as arnica and edelweiss - pick at your own risk, for it is illegal). The views of the mountains are absolutely stunning (even tourists from Switzerland admit that).
