Polonyna Borzhava is one of the largest mountain ranges in the Ukrainian Carpathians. It stretches between the rivers Vicha, Borzhava and Rika in the Transcarpathian region. The landscapes here are very distinctive, being defined by their rhythmic structure and velvety terrain covered with grass and bilberry bushes. A one-day hike here is an easy and enjoyable walk. Borzhava has some of the most picturesques vistas in the Ukrainian Carpathians. This hike is of moderate complexity with the length of the route appr. 16 km. Sections of rocky terrain in combination with snow may increase the complexity of the path. Duration is appr. 15 hours. Small-group format ensures a personalized experience. Make sure your clothes and your hiking boots (trekking shoes) are comfortable for the hike. Trekking shoes are obligatory!

Inclusions: private tour, hotel pickup and drop-off, transportation by private vehicle, meals during the hike, guiding services, travel insurance, Snacks

Karpaty Travel are Taras, a grizzled mountaineer with a heart of gold and a good sense of humor, and Krystyna, a jovial young interpreter. We went on the tour: Mysteries of Skelevsky Bedesky: Lopata Mountain, and it was covered in snow even in April, and made for a great, technical ascent with gorgeous snowscapes. They organized a private tour for me during the pandemic, and to be fair to them and myself, it was much more expensive than their normal prices, which again, to be fair, are much lower than most tour companies. Couple things to note: 1: I think they understated the difficulty of the hikes a little, only because they are both in such good physical condition. 2: They were EXTREMELY flexible, and went far beyond the listed tour package to ensure I felt I was getting enough for my money. 3: They don't accept paymend by credit card, though this could change in the future. Otherwise I would happily go hiking with them every week, and recommend them to everyone.

JC Travel arranged a two week tour of the Ukraine. They worked with us in establishing the itinerary, selecting hotels and arranged all transportation, guides and sights within the cities selected. Everything was most professional from knowledgeable guides, to excellent drivers, to hotel locations and all transport to and from hotels and airports. Julia, the owner, is personally involved in arranging all aspects of the tour and everything was well organized and ran like clockwork. Couldn't be more pleased and recommend highly.
