About the route
The route starts in the centre of Lazeshchyna and leads to Hoverla via Kozmeshchyk. There is a shelter near Kozmeshchyk. The ascent then continues through the forest, with a gazebo, rest areas and springs along the way.
Higher up, there is a clearing for tents, and below the mountain there is another camping spot with a spring. Near Komyn, at an altitude of 1850 m, there is a small stream, but during dry periods the water may disappear. Before reaching the summit, you can shelter from bad weather in a small refuge below Hoverla.
Please note: the route has a significant elevation gain. If hiking in spring, there may be snow above the forest line. Hoverla, 2061 m, lies within protected areas.
