Dragobrat Resort is one of the most popular places for skiing in the Carpathians and in the whole of Ukraine.Description
Dragobrat Resort is one of the most popular places for skiing in the Carpathians and throughout Ukraine. It is popular for the height at which the tracks are made. Due to its natural conditions and well established infrastructure Dragobrat is the highest resort in the country (the minimum height starts from 1 400 meters, the highest is at the top of the mountain Stog which is about 1 707 meters).
More than ten tracks of different levels of difficulty await for the visitors: from green runs for beginners to black ones for professionals. Every slope in the resort is provided with a lift (some work for several runs). The slopes of mount Stog will be suitable for those who love the "civilized skiing". The most of all the tracks are here. From the top of Bliznitsa down go the tracks for freeriding (they are, in fact, just the unequipped slopes for lovers of free fall).
