Medobory Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Ternopil Oblast, Ukraine
The Medobory Nature Reserve encompasses limestone formations of the Tovtry Ridge, with canyon valleys, caves, forests, and rock-steppe areas spanning 95 square kilometers.
The reserve contains remnants of ancient Rus hillforts and a sculpture of the Slavic god Rod-Sviatovyt erected on Mount Bokhit between 1000 and 1300.
Mount Bokhit holds a megalithic dolmen structure and was a center for Slavic pagan practices that continued after the introduction of Christianity.
Visitors need administrative permission to access the reserve, with entry points near train stations and bus stops in Hrymailiv urban settlement.
The reserve preserves part of an ancient Sarmatian Sea barrier reef formed 15 to 20 million years ago, displaying original limestone structures from marine organisms.
