Kremenets Mountains National Nature Park, National nature park at Podolian Upland, Ukraine
Kremenets Mountains National Nature Park covers rolling hills made of chalk, clay, and limestone with ridges, plateaus, and steep slopes. The terrain features varied landscapes that alternate between valleys and elevated areas.
A fortress from the 16th century crowns one of the mountains and has overlooked the town of Kremenets for centuries. This structure marks the long history of human settlement and defense in the region.
Three major Ukrainian regions meet within the park, creating a place where different local traditions and customs intersect naturally.
The area has several well-marked walking trails of varying difficulty levels to suit different fitness levels. There are also routes for cycling that connect different parts of the park.
The protected area is home to dozens of rare animal species and more than 20 types of orchids that thrive in the park's different habitats. This diversity makes it particularly valuable for nature observers.
