Сокільський, Mountain peak in Pokuttia-Bukovyna Carpathians, Ukraine
Sokilsky is a mountain ridge in the Pokuttia-Bukovyna Carpathians reaching about 940 meters in elevation. The formation extends between two rivers and offers varied terrain for hiking and exploring the landscape.
The ridge shows signs of human activity from ancient times through petroglyphs carved into its surface. The area held significance for the Hutsul people and later became associated with important cultural monuments.
Ancient petroglyphs discovered along the Sokilsky ridge indicate the presence of early settlements and reveal historical patterns of human habitation.
Hikers can begin from several villages including Sokolivka or Yavoriv, with local guides and drivers providing access to various trails. The best time for exploration is during warmer months when paths are passable and weather is more stable.
A striking stone formation near Yavoriv called Mykhasyukove Stone visually resembles the famous Norwegian Trolltunga. This similarity intrigues visitors looking for unexpected connections between mountain formations across regions.
