About the route
The route starts and ends in Bukovel. It goes to Lake Ozirne on the Ozirnyi stream and returns over Ploska (1334 m) and Dovha (1371 m) mountains.
You can spend the night by Lake Ozirne or on Polonyna Dovha. There is also a camping spot, Stoly, along the route. Near the old kolyba you can take shelter or stay overnight, but it is half-ruined. Do not leave rubbish there.
Please note. Part of the way to the lake can be difficult: the path disappears in places, becomes overgrown, can be boggy, and there are fallen trees. You need a navigator and extra time. This is not the best option for a first overnight hike if you have no experience moving through forest without a clear path.
After Dovha mountain there is a stream. In places the route goes through forest, so there will not be views everywhere.
