Stih
Stig is a peak in the northeastern part of the Svydovet massif, about 1704 meters high. The summit is covered with mountain ash, so the views are unobstructed - that's what they come here for.
The mountain stands in the Rakhiv region of Transcarpathia, and the saddle to Blyznytsia (1883 m), the highest point of Svydivets, stretches nearby. The Svydivets Peak hiking route connecting the villages of Yasinya and Ust-Chorna passes through Stig.
The most convenient way is from Yasinya. At the eastern foothills, the Dragobrat ski resort is buzzing with a lift, so you can reach the top in winter without too much effort. In short, the mountain is open all year round - the only question is what you plan to descend on.
