Attractions of Stryhany

A cascade of five lakes in a pine forest northwest of Slavuta, near the village of Stryhany, was formed on the site of exhausted peat quarries.

The lakes are deep, with clear and transparent water - due to the sandy bottom and a large number of artesian springs, which raise the glacial water of the Precambrian period to the surface.

There are pike, carp, crucian carp, crucian carp, tench, perch, and rare blue crayfish. There are wild ducks and swans.

During the Soviet times, on the shore of one of the Blue lakes, the Khmelnytsk NPP, located nearby, began to build the buildings of a pioneer camp and a recreation center, which remained unfinished.

Green tourism is developing in the surrounding villages. On hot summer days, there are many vacationers here, mostly motorists.

The palace of Chetvertynsky princes in Stryhany was built in 1904 in Western European forms.

During the Soviet regime, he served as a village council, then as a sanatorium for tuberculosis patients.

Currently in a dilapidated state.

A living forest tunnel was formed from leaves and branches of trees along the railway on the outskirts of the village of Stryhany.

The railway branch connecting the Slavuta sand quarry with the railway station "Slavuta 2" passes through the forest. The tunnel looks especially impressive in the period when there are many leaves on the trees.

Unlike the famous "Tunnel of Love" in Klevan, the arch of the tunnel in Stryhany has not yet been formed, and it is only about 100 meters long.
