Kytsivka Desert (Humpy Sands)
Humpy sands are the only semi-desert in the Kharkiv region (sometimes called the Kharkiv or Kytsivka desert).
Aeolian sand deposits, similar to dunes, arose on the site of a tank training ground near Chuhuiv, which was operated from the 1960s to the 1990s. The sandy hills are covered in places with moss, lichen, grass and shrubs.
A huge sandy area attracts extreme jeepers. Sometimes there are rusty shells.
