"Blue Windows" Karst Lakes

Natural object

The "Blue Windows" karst lakes (Blue Well, Khovanets) are located on the territory of the Northern Podillya National Nature Park among the hills that form the Voronyatsky Ridge.

They are located on the edge of the forest 2 kilometers southeast of the village of Yaseniv, 4 kilometers east of the village of Pidhirtsi. There are three lakes here, two of which are very close, and the third is a little further to the east. The lakes are natural monuments of local importance, although they do not have nature conservation status.

The name "Blue Windows" comes from the bright turquoise color of the water, which is most likely due to the dissolution of limestone rocks. The color of the water changes depending on the season. The depth of two unique reservoirs is approximately 3.5-3.8 meters. The water is cool and clear. The powerful perennial beeches of the northwestern edge of the Podillya Highlands adorn the blue water bodies.

In winter, the "Blue Windows" karst lakes do not freeze.
