National Park "Boikivshchyna"

National Park Boikivshchyna is a nature reserve in the Carpathian region with forests, wetlands, and mountain landscapes. The protected area spans different habitats that support a variety of plants and animals.

The protected area was established to replace agricultural and logging activities with environmental conservation of native species. This shift was essential for protecting habitats and wilderness in the region.

Communities around the park continue to use local materials for traditional crafts, maintaining practices tied to the land for generations. Visitors can see these living traditions in nearby villages and feel how closely people here connect with nature.

The park offers marked trails and guided tours year-round, with spring and summer providing the best conditions for walking. Wear sturdy shoes and be ready for changeable mountain weather.

The area serves as a research station for tracking how climate change affects mountain ecosystems and the species that live here. Scientists continuously monitor these changes and implement measures to protect endangered plants and animals.
