Yaremche, one of the most beautiful tourist towns in Ukraine, is also known as the Pearl of the Carpathians. The city, which is located at an altitude of 585 meters above sea level, first records date back to the year 1727. According to some sources, the city takes its name from a peasant named Yarema Hodovanets who fled to this area from his master in the 18th century in feudalism.

Located in the valley of the River Prut, at the foot of the Carpathian Mountains, the town is fascinating for its visitors with its spectacular mountain views, pure air, fun and ski facilities. The first mention of Yaremche being a holiday destination begins with the increasing number of people who came here to heal and relax in the 19th century. While the number of places to stay in the Soviet Union period increased, thousands of people are being treated in the famous sanatorium. Yaremche, which has turned into a skiing paradise during winter is now being flooded by skiers and snowboarders as well as trekkers and rock climbers. Each season has a different beauty, you can ride in the forests, you can go rafting and you can ride an ATV motorcycle.

The town has unique architecture as well as fun winter activities. The monasteries and churches in the nearby village of Dora are 17th century. The Metropolitan Sheptytsky Museum, which organises art exhibitions with the Carpathian Regional Liberation Movement Museum, which includes works reflecting the city's recent history and paintings of national artists, is the meeting point of the city's culture.

The most photogenic view in Yaremche is the 8-meter-high Yaremchanskyi Huk Waterfall, described as the most beautiful, strongest waterfall of the Carpathian Mountains. You will not be able to get enough of watching the waterfall from the bridge over the Prut River of the enraged water rushing and decending through the stone banks. In the immediate vicinity of the waterfall, you face a local market, one of the most colourful corners of the city. Again on this route, a mound rising at 80 meters is seen as a target point among rock climbers and trekkers while surprising those who see it in its fantastic form.
