Dovbush Rocks Painting

The Rocks of Dovbush are a fascinating combination of natural wonders and manmade creations that can be found in the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast. Part of the Polyantytskiy Regional Landscape Park, the site has been named one of Ukraine’s seven natural and historical landmarks. The sandstone cliffs were formed some 70 million years ago when the area was at the bottom of a warm sea, and consists of oddly shaped stones, massive caves, shadowy gorges, impressive fortifications, yawning pits, winding labyrinths, and mysterious pathways. This makes the forested site, easily reached by horseback, carriage, or foot from the village of Bubnische, a popular destination for rock climbers, with over 100 routes available. Among the many amazing residual rock outcrops at the site is the Carpathian Sphinx – the profile of a flattened little man. Of course, the Rocks of Dovbush are not only a natural landmark, but an historic one as well. The site has been inhabited for centuries and has served as a military fortress on many occasions, including for Oleksa Dovbush – the legendary Robin Hood-like folk hero after whom the site is named. This combination of natural and historic importance makes the Rocks of Dovbush a ‘must see’ for any serious Ukrainian traveler.
