"Sloboda Rakivets" is a complex of seven lakes with infrastructure surrounded by oak primeval forests. On several hectares, the ponds that existed here since the times of Austria have been restored, which later, during the Soviet era, were neglected and overgrown with shrubs. A whole mountain of silt has been dumped here, adding a special charm to the overall view from the banquet hall windows. A camping site will also be arranged.
The village of Volya Yakubova is the birthplace of our national hero Andriy Melnyk - a prominent political figure, colonel of the UNR army, comrade of Konovalets, head of the OUN leadership, who dedicated his entire life to the struggle of the Ukrainian people against the occupiers. A museum of Andriy Melnyk will soon be established in a house that reflects the architecture of those times.
Thanks to the complex, the village of Volya Yakubova will become one of the tourist and recreational centers of the region. The recreation base is indeed located in a paradise corner, and there will be many offers for quality recreation. This includes fishing, "quiet" mushroom hunting, banquets, historical excursions, riding exotic animals (camels, llamas, Hutsul horses, etc.), the possibility of overnight stays in cozy cottages, visits to the "Island of Love", theatrical performances, Cossack weddings, and more.
Around the complex is a nature reserve. On the site of swamps and marshes, paved roads and paths have been laid, which can be traveled by electric car, carriage, or walked. A ship is being built on one of the ponds, which will serve as a stage for theatrical events.
The most mysterious place at the recreation base is the enigmatic Island of Love. This name is not new; local residents have called this small island that since the Austrian times. Here, unique plants and mosses grow, berries and mushrooms are born, and all together form a unique biogeocenosis - a dynamic self-sufficient and self-regulating system.
Here, a recently planted fruit orchard grows, in the distance, fat-tailed sheep and buffalo graze. A mill will be built here, which used to be in almost every Galician village. Everything here will breathe antiquity, Cossack spirit, beauty, and national color. "Sloboda Rakivets" invites you for fishing, overnight stays, and relaxation. A good mood and pleasant impressions are guaranteed.
To Volya Yakubova - less than an hour's drive from Truskavets (20 km), and even less from Drohobych. Here are Rykhtychi with interesting architecture of the church and a copy of the figure of Christ the Redeemer from Rio de Janeiro, here is the turn to Dobryvlany, and we already see the fork to Volya Yakubova and "Sloboda Rakivets". Behind the oak forests, in the depths of Drohobych region, a wonderful paradise corner is hidden, which transforms into a fairy tale.
