Mount Skupova
Mount Skupova is the peak of the Ukrainian Carpathians, which is located in the Hryniava mountain range. It is located in the Verkhovyna district of Ivano-Frankivsk region, to the east of the village of Zelene and to the west of the village of Yablunytsia.
Skupova is the highest peak of the Krynta-Skupova ridge: its height is 1579 m (according to other information, 1580 m).
The foot of the mountain and the slopes up to an altitude of 1300-1400 m are covered with centuries-old forests, above this mark - with meadows.
The slopes of Mount Skupova are quite steep, except for the gentle northern slope, which smoothly turns into a ridge that extends northwest to Mount Roztitska.
Since Skupova is the highest peak of the Krynta-Skupova Mt. Krynta-Skupova, its top offers magnificent views in almost all directions of the horizon: to the south you can see the Chyvchyn mountain range, to the north - the Pokutsko-Bukovyna Mountains, to the west and northwest - the majestic Chornohora.
The nearest settlements are the village of Zelene and the village of Yablunytsia (Verkhovyna district, Ivano-Frankivsk region).
