The hill is Ukraine’s highest peak at 2061 m.
Hoverla mountain is not difficult to climb. The most popular route is from East — about 6 km to climb from the trailhead at 1100 m above sea level (where Zaroslyak mountain cottage is) to the summit at 2061 m.
Hoverla or Goverla is surrounded by other mountains above 1800 m. Happens to find patches of snow often still in August.
The top of Hoverla is the place with the worst weather in all of Ukraine. Here is the least amount of sun, the most thunderstorms, lightning, snow…
Every August 24 thousand of Ukrainians climb the mountain to celebrate Ukraine’s independence day. There are a number of monuments on the summit.
It takes two or three stages to get to Hoverla.
For example, you can take the overnight train from Kyiv to Ivano-Frankivsk (or from Kharkiv to Ivano-Frankivsk), then a minibus from the Ivano-Frankivsk train station to Vorokhta, then take a taxi ride from Vorokhta to the Hoverla trailhead. It may take about 20 hours.
Or it is possible to take the Kyiv-Yaremcha bus and get a taxi from Yaremcha to the trailhead.
