Chortovi Skeli, Forest reserve with rock formations in Lviv Oblast, Ukraine.

Archaeological findings reveal traces of a Paleolithic hunter's camp and a medieval watchtower from King Daniel's period at this location.

The rocky formations carry the name Devil's Rocks, reflecting local folklore and traditional stories passed through generations in the region.

Visitors can reach the site by taking bus routes 29 or 40 from Lviv city center, with a journey time of approximately 25 minutes.

The reserve features multiple climbing routes on its rock formations, while a natural spring attracts people for swimming activities throughout the year.
