Dzembronya
Mountain village in Verkhovyna District, Ivano-Frankivsk Region, scattered within the Carpathian National Nature Park. The river of the same name flows through it, and the scenery here is self-explanatory.
For a tourist, Dzembrony is primarily a start to the Chornohirsky ridge: in a couple of hours, they climb Vukhatiy Kamin, from where the view towards Hoverla opens. And nearby are the Dzembron waterfalls, which are a sin to pass by.
The village also has its own history with the name: in Soviet times, it was renamed Berestechko, and only in 2009, after a local referendum, the specific Dzembron was returned. At one time, Lesya Ukrainka and Vasyl Stefanyk visited here.
