Rogozyanskoe reservoir, zbiornik retencyjny (Rejon zołocziwski, Ukraina)
Rogozyanskoe reservoir is a large body of water in Zolochiv Raion that covers several square kilometers of the landscape. The water remains shallow with a calm surface, surrounded by open fields, patches of forest, and wetland areas that frame the expanse of mirrored water.
The reservoir was constructed in 1985 to provide fresh water for local communities and irrigation for agricultural lands in the district. Since its creation, it has served generations of residents and farmers by meeting water needs and supporting farming activities in the region.
The reservoir serves as a gathering place for local residents and farmers who visit regularly throughout the year. The calm water surface and open surroundings create a space where people practice fishing and spend leisure time with family, connecting them to the natural rhythm of the countryside.
The reservoir can be reached from Zolochiv by local roads, situated about 11 kilometers from town. Visitors should bring their own supplies and refreshments since there are no facilities or services nearby, making self-sufficiency important for a comfortable visit.
The water level of the reservoir shifts noticeably with the seasons, rising in spring when snow melts and rain feeds the basin. In summer the water recedes, exposing muddy banks where vegetation takes root, creating a natural cycle that visitors can witness during their time here.
