What to see along the route:
The Church of St. Demetrius of Thessalonica in the small village of Tatariv was built in 1870. The church was erected in honor of the righteous great martyr Dmytro Slutsky. The architect F. Menchynskyi was the author of the church project. According to other sources, the church dates back to 1856. Obviously, it was built on the site of a previous wooden church. The church was completely covered with shingles until the late 1980s.

Khomyak is a 1542-meter-high peak of the Gorgan mountain range. Rumor has it that the mountain was named so because its shape resembles the back of a hamster. Perhaps those with a well-developed imagination can easily see this resemblance...

Narinetskyi Waterfall is a waterfall in the Ukrainian Carpathians, on the Noretskyi Stream (a left tributary of the Zhenets River). It is located on the border of the villages of Mykulychyn and Tatariv, which are subordinated to the Yaremche City Council. The total height of the waterfall is about 10 meters.

Zhenetskyi Huk is one of the most convenient Carpathian waterfalls for tourists, as it is accessible by a direct, asphalt road. It is also one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world. Zhenetskyi Huk gets a truly unique look during snowmelt and after heavy rains, when, in addition to the main stream, water flows in thin threads from the top of the rock, creating several more mini-waterfalls around.
