Grofa, Mountain summit in Rozhniativ Raion, Ukraine
Grofa is a mountain summit in the Carpathian region that rises to roughly 1,750 meters (5,740 feet). Multiple trails wind through thick forest on the way up, offering different routes to reach the peak.
The mountain has long served as a natural boundary between different administrative regions of Ukraine. This border role has persisted across centuries and shapes its geographical importance.
Local mountaineers gather annually at Grofa's summit to participate in traditional Ukrainian mountain climbing events and share regional folklore.
Hikers should bring plenty of water and food since there are no facilities on the mountain itself. The nearest shelter lies some distance to the south and should factor into your planning.
The mountain holds the position of fifth highest peak among 62 summits in Rozhniativ Raion and ranks 45th out of 3,926 peaks across Ukraine.
