Terrain

The property stands on the northern slope of the Carpathian arc, where beech and spruce forest runs from the valley floor up to roughly 1,000 m and the tree line gives way to open meadow above it.

Climate

Temperate continental mountain. July averages 17 °C, January averages -5 °C, and 900-1,100 mm of precipitation falls across about 150 days a year, most of it in June and July.

Water

Drinking water is drawn from a capped mineral spring at 760 m and measured at 14 °C at the outlet. The Opir river runs 2.4 km below the property, along the valley road.

Approach

128 km from Lviv by the M06 and T1425 roads, 2 h 40 min by road transfer. The nearest rail halt is Skole, 9 km from the gate, with onward pickup by arrangement.
