Carpathian Biosphere Reserve
Carpathian Biosphere Reserve, Nature reserve in Berehove Raion, Ukraine
The Carpathian Biosphere Reserve spans 58,035 hectares across multiple mountain ranges, protecting ancient beech forests and alpine meadows in the Eastern Carpathians.
The reserve originated from several forest sanctuaries in the early 20th century and received its official protected status in 1968 with an initial area of 12,600 hectares.
The reserve maintains strong connections with local communities who practice traditional agriculture and forestry methods passed down through generations in the Carpathian region.
Visitors can access six separate protected areas within the reserve, including the Chornohora massif featuring Mount Hoverla, the highest peak in Ukraine at 2,061 meters.
The reserve contains the Valley of Narcissi, which holds the largest concentration of narrow-leaved daffodils in Central Europe, blooming across the meadows each spring.
