About the place

It is located within the Rakhiv, Tyachiv, Khust, and Vynohradiv districts of the Zakarpattia region. The Carpathian Nature Reserve was established in 1968 in the Zakarpattia region to preserve wildlife areas unique to Europe, including especially valuable beech virgin forests. The task of the reserve is to protect and restore endangered flora and fauna, including endemics of the Ukrainian part of the Carpathians. The idea of protecting the nature of this part of the Carpathians appeared in the early 20th century. Over time, several forest reserves were created in the Chornohora and Marmoroska areas.
