About the route
A circular route from the village of Hoverla in Rakhiv District to the Chornogora ridge. It is suitable if this village is easier for you to reach than other starting points for Chornogora. Getting here by public transport takes a long time, unless you are already in Rakhiv or travelling through Transcarpathia.
On the ascent there is a spring and the remains of the Hoverla sluice dam. Before reaching the ridge, there are places for rest and camping. The route then passes Turkuł (1933 m), Lake Nesamovyte, Rebra (2001 m), Hutyn Tomnatyk (2016 m), and Lake Brebeneskul. There is a reliable spring near Nesamovyte, but the place is popular and there may be many tents there. There is practically no firewood, so it is worth bringing a gas stove.
There is also a permanent spring and several camping spots near Brebeneskul. Further down the route there is a shepherd's hut and another spring. Note that in the area of the Klyfa tract, the old trail may be hard to see and overgrown. It is better to check your navigator there; the dirt-road bypass is longer.
