Mount Lopata
The mountain is located on the Zelemyanka ridge at a distance of 8 km south of the town of Skole. The peak is 1211 meters above sea level. There is a cross on the mountain dedicated to the memory of the UPA fighters. In the summer of 1994, UPA units fought with the German and Hungarian occupiers. The battle lasted for ten days. The route includes two interesting sights of Lviv region: Kamianka Waterfall and Dead Lake with hydrogen sulfide water (no fish there).
The ascent itself is difficult - it is designed for physically healthy people, but it is an interesting active vacation, a hike of medium difficulty, 13 km long. In summer, you can enjoy blueberries and lingonberries and admire the panorama of Skole.
