Arching across seven countries, from the Czech Republic, across Poland, Slovakia, Ukraine and Hungary, and down to Romania and the tip of Serbia, the Carpathians are Europe's last great wilderness area -- a bastion for large carnivores, with over half of the continent's population of bears, wolves and lynx, and home to the greatest remaining reserve of old growth forests outside of Russia. Near the settlement of Mezhgor'e lies the glacial Sinevir Lake, which was formed in a post-glacial period more than 10,000 years ago. Breathe healthful forest air of Zakarpat'ya. It is possible to walk to the museum under the opene sky on the Black river. The road will cross four mountain passes, where you can see the amazing splendor of snow capped mountains. The birth of the national natural park “Sinevir” is connected with the mountain lake of the unique beauty. Sinevir is the largest and one of the most beautiful mountain lakes in the Carpathians. The water in the lake is so clear that you can see the bottom. In 1989 the national park Sinevir was created in this place. You will find yourself in the corner of the virgin nature and see the beauty of tall slim beeches which are several hundred years old. Here you can meet many rare species and about 90 kinds of rare and disappearing plants registered in the Red book. In the park area there is a famous spherical bog Glukhania. Not far from the lake on the River Chernaya there is a unique Museum of the woods and driving. The Carpathian mountains dominate the region with their forests, rivers, lakes, alpine meadows, towns and villages. The region is rich in culture, activity and history. It is ideal for summer holidays walking, riding, mountain climbing, exploring. Equipped campsites, hikers' refuges, groomed hiking trails or signs are very rare. Topographical maps with hiking routes can be obtained at the resorts or from the local inhabitants who provide accommodation to tourists. It is highly advisable to bring rain gear. Drinking water is widely available from the mountain brooks and streams.
The Carpathians are appreciated as the last region in Europe to support viable populations of Europe's greatest mammals. Brown bear, wolf and lynx can all be found in the forests of the region. Threatened bird species, including the Imperial eagle, Ural owl and the corncrake, have also found a sanctuary here. On a continent where 40% of mammals are threatened by extinction, the Carpathians offer one of the last opportunities for resettling Europe’s large carnivores.

Moreover, the nature of the Ukrainian Carpathians and riverbanks is suitable for riding. Traveling by developed routes tourists become acquainted with different districts, way of life and culture of local people that didn’t change much over the last three hundred years. The Carpathians benefit from having a relatively mild temperature in winter time. Lowest winter temperatures are around -10 C to -15 C (5 F to 14 F).

The Carpathians are rich in rivers. The Dniester River with its numerous tributaries, the tributaries of the Danube River, including the Tysa River with its tributaries, the Prut River, and others all originate in the mountains. The rivers are fed mostly by snow and rain. Flash floods are common in the spring and summer. The Ukrainian Carpathians are typical mountains of medium height with rock of low resistance. Because of the abundance of mineral springs, a healthy climate, and natural beauty, the Carpathians are the main resort and recreation area in Ukraine after the Crimea. Various mineral springs—carbonic acid, salt, iodine salt, bitter, and petroleum—occur.
The Carpathians form a major mountain system in southeastern Europe, curving 900 miles along the borders of the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Poland, and the Ukraine If you visit the Carpathians, you will not find yourself in an extreme blizzards or dying from severe hypothermia The Carpathians are appreciated as the last region in Europe to support viable populations of Europe's greatest mammals.

Carpathian Mountains, major mountain system, central and eastern Europe, extending 1,500 km (900 mi) in a great semicircle from Bratislava, Slovakia, to the Iron Gate near Orsova, Romania. One-third of all European vascular plant species can be found in this region – that means 3,988 plant species, 481 of which are found only in the Carpathians. The mountains form a "bridge" between Europe 's northern forests and those in the south and west. As such, they are a vital corridor for the dispersal of plants and animals throughout Europe The Ukrainian Carpathians are typical mountains of medium height with rock of low resistance. Gentle, broad, and little-dissected ridges and parallel valleys contrast with the deeply incised (up to 1,000 m) transverse valleys with steep slopes that are the result of the relief's rejuvenation. Only the highest parts of the Carpathians—mainly the Hutsul Alps and Chornohora—display a high-mountain landscape owing to past glaciation. Rock fields appear only here and, more markedly, in the Corgany Mountains, but even the highest peaks of the Carpathians are covered with clays and continuous vegetation. Highslide JS
