However way from the main cities and right at the border with Poland, Slovakia and Hungary, the Ukrainian Carpathians are among the most remote – and certainly among the most Wilderness rich – areas the country has to offer. A tiny fragment of the 1,500-kilometre range of mountains stretching in an arc from the Czech Republic to Serbia via Poland and Romania, they occupy the westernmost corner of Ukraine and host their share of the wildlife – wolves, bears, lynxes and a variety of plant species – for which the Carpathians are famous.
