Zakarpattya

Zakarpattya Regional State Administration

People say the land of Zakarpattya is close to the sky. You will always remember the crystal clearness of the rivers, the silver sound of pure air, the incredible beauty and majesty of the mountains, the castles and the parks.

As a tourist destination, Zakarpattya offers an unforgettable experience all the year round. In winter it is mountain-skiing. Drahobrat resort is famous for its high reliefs and very steep trails for freestyle. At Podobovets and Pylypets resorts the whole family will have a great time; this is also where you can access the Shypit waterfall and the Synevyr lake.

Spring to summer is the time of Zakarpattya in Bloom. You will see all shades of green and blue, and get a chance to admire the Valley of Daffodils. Delicate crocuses and primrose, pink cherry blossom trees, magnolias, edelweiss, tulip trees, and ginkgo – in the blooming season Zakarpattya looks like a true paradise on earth.

This is also the time of active recreation. If you are more into extreme sports and adrenaline, there are plenty of options to choose from: quad biking, mountain river rafting and spelunking in underground caves, bike tours, horseback riding, hiking, paragliding and hang-gliding.

A cozy country house is a perfect place to escape the demanding metropolis and restore your inner harmony. The helpful hosts will meet and greet you, and the nature will build up your energy

The proximity to the border means you can drink your morning coffee in Ukraine, have dinner in Hungary, or try real Czech food – this is another highlight many tourists find curious. Yet we believe you will not want to go anywhere enchanted by the hospitality, generosity, cuisine, and special atmosphere of this region.

Naturally, any mountain enthusiast wants to climb the Hoverla peak. Watch the majestic waves of morning fog, feel them wash away all the worldly stuff and help you touch eternity. And there, on peaks yet unconquered, there are no doubts left: Zakarpattya is truly a land close to the sky.

So welcome to Zakarpattya! Find out. Visit. And bring back the memories of a lifetime!
