Yamna, Former mountain village in Carpathians, Ukraine
Yamna is a settlement in the Carpathian Mountains near Yaremche in Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast. The village sits on a mountain plateau and today forms part of Yaremche city, though it was once recognized as an independent mountain community.
The village developed as an independent mountain community in the Carpathians and maintained this status for many years. As the region underwent urbanization, Yamna was incorporated into the adjacent city of Yaremche, marking a turning point in its development.
The Church of St. John the Merciful represents religious traditions and architectural elements characteristic of Ukrainian Carpathian settlements.
The settlement is accessible via road connections from Yaremche, which is well linked to larger cities in the region. Visitors can generally use local transport options to explore the area and move around the plateau.
The settlement lies close to Carpathian ski facilities, particularly the Vedmezha Gora ski resort. This location makes the area a natural base for winter sports enthusiasts and mountain hikers visiting the region.
