“Uzhgorod – Mukachevo – Carpathians”. By choosing it, you will get acquainted with the oldest castles of Western Ukraine.
The starting point is the old city of Uzhhorod, famous for blooming sakura trees. The city transforms into one soft, pink, lush bouquet every spring.
Uzhgorod
The castle in Uzhgorod, the museum, was built in the 11th century. For many years, it was ruled by a count’s dynasty from Italy, remembered for one creepy legend. It is said that in one of the walls of the fortress, the only daughter of the nobleman, who was in love with the guy who aspired to conquer this castle, was walled up. Even now, a ghost of the girl walks through the gloomy hallways of the fortress in search of peace.
Nevitskoe
Many tourists visit one of the oldest castles in Zakarpattya, called “Pogan-deva.” The building was constructed right inside a volcanic crater. Anna, who founded the monastery, was one of the representatives of the Italian dynasty described above, who had a special hatred for young girls, killing them and then sacrificing them.
Mukachevo
If you are planning a route in Zakarpattya, it is important to consider that the roads here are not of the best quality, but the highway connecting Uzhgorod and Mukachevo is quite good. At the same time, most experienced drivers recommend renting an SUV for such a trip, which has increased stability and off-road performance.
According to a legend, Mukachevo owes its name to the word “torment.” A gigantic three-tiered building of the Palanok Castle rises within the city limits. Under its gloomy walls are many prison cells and torture chambers, and the fortress’s history holds secrets about undivided love and the strength of the human spirit. Moving forward to Chinadievo.
Chinadievo
Fort St. Miklos is the only manned castle in Ukraine. Visitors find themselves guests of a modern feudal lord, feeling like real aristocrats. All ancient customs and traditions are observed here, so guests experience the atmosphere of romanticism and chivalry. The fortress has a whole network of secret rooms and passages to which travelers can access any time of day.
Carpathians
After another 8 kilometers from the charming town of Chinadievo, you will find yourself in the village of Carpathians, the last point on this route. The ancient building, which is located here, is called the Schönborns’ hunting castle. Tourists come here to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of arithmetic, astrology, and amazing myths. Notably, the number of windows here corresponds to the number of days in the year, which is 365.
“Lviv – Urych – Rozgirce” – you can admire the spectacular cliffs by choosing this route.
This route, recommended by experienced travelers, begins in the ancient city of Lviv. At a distance of 90 kilometers from Lviv, there is a village, Urych, where a pretty good road leads. A building of the ancient fort “Tustan,” which bears the name “sleeping dragon,” is located here. The ridge of high rocks once served as a customs house on the way of merchants traveling with salt wagons.
Rozgirce
The village of Rozgirce is an hour’s drive away, along a road that is not in the best condition. The main landmark of the village is the building of the Christian Orthodox monastery, located in a complex of very ancient caves. It is rumored that at some time, mysterious rituals of pagans were performed here.
Bubnyshche
The last point of the route is the village of Bubnishche, located 45 kilometers from Rozgirce. Hiking and horseback riding are available here among the cliffs and spectacular forest areas, which inspire tourists with a special energy. According to the villagers, a group of cliffs formed at the point of a tectonic plate fault is capable of healing, “singing,” and “hearing thoughts.”
“Kamyanets-Podilskyi – Khotyn” – is well considered a miraculous route.
Its starting point is the ancient city of Kamyanets-Podilskyi, located among the snow-white cliffs of the Smotrytskyi Canyon. There are so many monuments of antiquity here that Kamyanets-Podilskyi is in third place in Ukraine by the number of memorable places. Besides, some landmarks are unique.
Maliivtsi
Situated at a total of 60 kilometers is the village of Malievtsi. Recognizing it on the map is difficult, so tourists do not often visit it. However, there is a real chapel waterfall in the village; the first mention dates back to the middle of the 11th century.
Kryvche
It will take you about an hour and a half by car to get from Malievtsi to the famous Khrustalnaya cave. The cave has more than 23 km of dark and mysterious labyrinths, which will be remembered for its mysterious and enchanting atmosphere.
Khotyn
After passing another 50 kilometers, you will find yourself in the town of Khotin, where many tourists come to see the Khotin fortress. Numerous kingdoms and princely empires once claimed this territory. According to the residents, a wish made here will surely come true.
Going on an exciting trip in the comfortable cabin of a rented car, you become the owner of a reliable transportation vehicle and a roomy “suitcase” where you can easily fit all your luggage, including tents. You can practically take an unforgettable trip through the charming territory of Western Ukraine at any time of the year. Still, in the winter, in addition to visiting the ancient monuments, you can go snowboarding or skiing, taste several kinds of warmed wine with honey, and enjoy the snow-covered mountain peaks. All this attracts a lot of car travelers every year, and the suggested routes are becoming increasingly popular.
