Kosivskyi Huk, Mountain waterfall near Kosiv, Ukraine.
Water streams drop from a height of 2.5 meters over granite rocks, creating a strong sound that echoes through the Pokutsko-Bukovynian Carpathian forest.
The formation of this waterfall occurred through natural processes after World War Two, when floods in the region caused substantial changes in rock formations.
The name Huk originates from Ukrainian language, referring to the intense sound produced by the falling water in this section of Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast.
The waterfall remains accessible throughout the year via a marked trail from Kosiv, with winter visits offering opportunities to observe frozen water formations.
During spring floods, the water volume increases substantially, creating multiple channels that spread across the rock face in different patterns.
