Zhovkva is the second-best city in the whole region (except for Lviv) where the most historical objects of the 17th – 18th century are located. There is a castle, a monastery, a market square and defense facilities. The next point of the tour is Krekhiv, the village where the old St. Nicolas fortress-monastery of the 16th – 17th century is situated.
Afterwards, we cycle through the National park of Roztochchia with its unique flora and fauna, until we reach the village of Ivano-Frankove. There you’ll get to taste delicious home-made lunch with traditional Ukrainian culinary delights, such as borshch and dumplings. You can even try making your own dumpling!
