Mount Petros Gorgansky
Petros Horhanskyi is a 1702 m high mountain (the Polish map of 1935 shows different information - 1708 m) in the central part of the Horhanskyi mountain range of the beautiful Ukrainian Carpathians. It is located in Rozhniativ district of Ivano-Frankivsk region.
Petros Horhanskyi is an X-shaped mountain with ridges oriented from southeast to northwest and from southwest to northeast. The slopes of the massif along the ridges are more gentle, unlike the northern, southern, western and eastern slopes, which are considered difficult or even impassable.
Beech and coniferous forests are common up to an altitude of 1350-1400 meters, and above this line there are meadows.
It is worth noting that it is on the slopes of Petros Horhanskyi that several streams originate, which merge at the foot into the small rivers Petros and Darivka, and those in turn flow into the Limnytsia.
From the very top you can enjoy a beautiful view of a part of the Gorgan massif. From here you can clearly see Big and Small Syvuli, Velyka Popadia, Parenky, Studenets, etc.
The area where Petros Horhanskyi is located is sparsely populated.
The nearest settlements are the villages of Osmoloda, Kolochava and Synevyrska Polyana.
