Połonina Caryńska, Mountain grassland in Bereżki, Poland.
Połonina Caryńska stretches between Dwernik and Wołosaty river valleys, featuring four peaks with Kruhly Wierch reaching 1297 meters in elevation.
Local communities maintained grazing practices until the late interwar period, which prevented forest growth and shaped the current appearance of the landscape.
The grassland derives its name from Caryńskie village, which maintained traditional agricultural practices and contained a church relocated in 1929.
Four marked hiking trails lead to the summit, with the easiest route starting from Wyżniańska Pass requiring 75 minutes to climb 416 meters.
The location permits views of distant mountain ranges including Ukrainian Gorgany and, during clear weather conditions, the Tatra Mountains.
