Private Manyavsky Monastery and Maniava Falls from Yaremche

Your private 6 hour journey will uncover an amazing world of the Carpathian Mountains with dense forests and mountain fresh air. You will visit Manyavsky Skete, an Orthodox monastery that creates calm and inner ambiance in your heart. Furthermore, you will admire the gorgeous Maniava Waterfall that is a real feast for the eyes.

Meet your private local guide at your centrally located Yaremche hotel at your chosen departure time, and set off on your roughly 31-mile (50-kilometer) trip to Manyavsky Monastery.

During your approximately 1.5-hour journey, enjoy awesome views of the Eastern Carpathian Mountains, and learn fascinating facts about Manyavsky, often described as the ‘Ukrainian Athos.’

Savor the fresh mountain air and visit Manyavsky, a holy place and skete (monastic community) situated in the Carpathians near the River Manyavka.

On arrival, tour the monastery and learn about its long and impressive history, dating back to the 13th century. It was then that two monks discovered a holy spring here on what was known as the ‘Blessed Stone,’ and decided to establish a cave-abbey after witnessing visions of the Virgin Mary. It’s believed the waters of the wellspring have healing powers.

Explore the monastery's stunning buildings, mostly constructed during the 17th century, and see the precious icons of the holy cross exaltation icons in the wooden church. As you look around, absorb the sense of peacefulness and calm experienced by all who visit here.

The next part of your trip takes you to the beautiful Maniava Waterfalls, one of the highest falls in the Ukraine at nearly 65 feet (20 meters). Travel into the stunning, lushly wooded Manyavsky River valley and stop to take in the magnificents falls and explore the small lake its waters tumble into. Snap plenty of pictures and hear captivating stories about this magical-looking place from your guide.

Afterward, travel back to Yaremche where your trip ends with a drop-off at your hotel.
