Divochi Skeli, Geological monument in Kremenets Mountains, Ukraine.
Divochi Skeli is a limestone cliff formation in the Kremenets Mountains of Ternopil Oblast. The rocky walls rise prominently from the landscape and display distinct geological layers that reveal how they formed over time.
The sedimentary layers at Divochi Skeli formed over millions of years and record the geological history of the region. Today the limestone formation stands as a protected monument preserving this ancient record.
The name Maiden Rocks comes from local stories passed down through generations about the cliffs. These tales shape how residents relate to and speak about the place today.
The site is accessible via hiking trails from nearby villages, and visitors should wear sturdy footwear and exercise caution on steep paths. Spring and autumn offer the best conditions for safe hiking with clear views of the surroundings.
Researchers study the rock layers here to understand how mountain ranges formed across the broader Ukrainian landscape. The layers tell a story that extends far beyond this single location.
