08 February 2024

The Ukrainian Carpathians are an amazing place where you can declare your love, make a proposal and bring passion back into your relationship. Lovers who have recently announced themselves as a couple or who have already managed to get bogged down in the household routine come on Valentine's Day. Unlike a winter vacation in the mountains, this weekend will be remembered for a long time and will make you remember why you fell in love with each other. Find out where to celebrate Valentine's Day in the Carpathians and what to do so that this trip goes well and leaves behind unforgettable impressions.

The main advantages of a Valentine's Day vacation in the Carpathians

Everyone has different associations with the Carpathians. Some consider them a place of strength and solitude, others a center of winter entertainment and a special celebration of Christmas and New Year. In February, the high season at the ski resorts is still going on, but it is no longer possible to see how the holidays are greeted with a local flavor. Therefore, it depends on you what memories will remain after the trip to the mountains on the eve of February 14.

Plan in advance what you will do on the weekend in the Carpathians or stay for a week so that you do not have to choose between entertainment. If you are planning to spend Valentine's Day in the Carpathians, you will be delighted by:

  • Picturesque landscapes are the main advantage of the Ukrainian Carpathians, which take your breath away. You can spend hours enjoying the beauty of nature while sipping hot mulled wine or swimming in the heated winter pool. No one has yet managed to leave a vacation in the mountains without taking at least one photo of the snowy Carpathians or the sunset over the forest.
  • The number of amazing locations where you can propose in the Carpathians. Lovers come to Lake Synevyr and the Shipit waterfall, to the oldest castles of Saint Miklos, Šenborny, or Nevytskyi - places where you can hear legends about crazy love on excursions. And they also climb Hoverla to declare their love for the first time or to propose to a girl.
  • Romantic dinners in a cozy atmosphere, which can be ordered in local establishments. Many restaurants and hotel complexes arrange a festive program for their guests. You can reserve a table in a hall with live music or in a place where famous artists and musical performers will perform.
  • Plenty of entertainment for fans of active recreation. If you don't like to sit in one place, you can spend your vacation in the Carpathians on February 14 in the fresh air - skiing, observation lifts, sledding, dog sledding, etc.
  • A pleasant rest for those who do not like to be in the cold for a long time. Having booked a room in a hotel and tourist complex with a SPA center, you can diversify your weekend by visiting the swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi, massage services, Carpathian baths, etc.

For many who go to the Carpathians, Valentine's Day lasts a whole week. Lovers usually come from February 9 to 18. The first days are for "acclimatization" and rest after the journey, February 14 is dedicated to a romantic evening, and all other days to favorite entertainment.

Despite the fact that there is not such a rush as on New Year's holidays, do not expect to find free places in hotels. Book rooms in advance to relax in the Carpathians in winter. If you have never been to the mountains in February, then you will be pleasantly surprised by the discounts on accommodation on weekdays and promotions organized in honor of Valentine's Day in restaurants, SPA centers and other establishments.

Plan entertainment depending on how you like to spend your time - actively or, on the contrary, in an atmosphere that sets you up for relaxation. If you come for a week, you will have time to gain unforgettable impressions, admire nature and be alone together. If you are going to come for 2-3 days, then do not waste your time - choose only a few entertainments that you like the most.

What to do on Valentine's Day in the Carpathians?

Devote February 14 to romance. For the evening, book a table in a restaurant, and for the day - entertainment that does not require your active participation. Skiing is not the best choice. If you are not used to such a rest, you will lose a lot of strength and energy. In addition, spend several hours to get to the ski resort, pick up the equipment, return it and return to the room. In order not to spoil the romantic evening, on the afternoon of February 14, you can engage in the following activities:

Dedicate Valentine's Day to relaxation and communication with each other. Do not try to try all the entertainment offered in the Carpathians. In a few days, it is impossible to see the most famous sights, visit a ski resort, a nature reserve and animal farms. To get the best experience of the local flavor and enjoy nature, you need to stay for a long time.

If you are going to come to the Carpathians for a week, you can not only spend time together in a romantic atmosphere, but also visit the most touristic places:

  • tracks for skiing, snowboarding, ATVs and snowmobiles;
  • excursions in the region;
  • ethnoparks;
  • establishments with Hutsul cuisine.
