Since 1992, it has been part of the international network of UNESCO biosphere reserves. There are six separate massifs on the territory of several districts of Transcarpathia. The most famous is the Narcissus Valley, where the rare narrow-leaved narcissus grows. The Svydovetsky reserve covers the highest part of Svydovets with the legendary peaks of Blyznyuky - Edelweiss trees grow here. The business card of the Chornohorsky massif is the highest peak of Ukraine - Mount Hoverla (2061 meters above sea level).
