At a height of 900 m. there is a lake, which is called Dead lake, because nobody knows where the water comes from. There are also souvenir stands during the tourist season there. You could hold a picnic on a meadow, ride a horse or have a lunch in one of the wooden restaurants located nearby.

We will stop for a lunch in the local restaurant “Sonyashnyk” .

Our next stop is another picturesque place near Rozhirche village. The whole monastery complex is located in the caves that were slotted in the rocks during XIII-XVI centuries. This is a unique sight as such style of construction wasn’t typical for Galicia at that times. These two-level rocky caves of the monastery include living rooms and church. The monastery is located on the hill so that you can watch a wide panorama of the surroundings and the valley of Opir river.

Returning to Lviv we drop into Stilske complex which is located near Mykolayiv. It is definitely a unique place, as its’ origin comes back to VIII – middle XI centuries. The capital of the Great (White) Croatia was located right in this area. The city was really huge at that time: fortified square came up to 250 ha, length of the arbor and defense walls – about 10 km. To compare, Kyiv of that time was only 9,8 ha in square. We will come back to Lviv approximately at 7 P.M.Guide Service.
