– Velyki Berezhtsi (climbing the mountain of God and visiting the shrines)

Velyki Berezhtsi is a place known throughout Ukraine for its pristine nature and shrines. One of these shrines is the 367-meter-high “Mountain of God,” which belongs to the Kremenets Mountains National Park. This mountain has attracted pilgrims since time immemorial, as it was the site of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and where she left her footprints. The trail that leads to the top of the mountain is called the “Wishing Trail” because people tie ribbons to the branches of the trees in the belief that their wishes will come true. At the top of the mountain there is a holy spring from which you can take water, as well as a cave-chapel from which you can take sand and clay, which are considered healing. Near the church of the Holy Trinity, you can see a cave, along the walls of which flows moisture, which has miraculous and life-giving properties and is called “Tears of the Virgin”.

– Onyshkivtsi (view of temples and bathing)

There is a sacred spring in the village, which is called the font of St. Righteous Anna. It is a place of pilgrimage for people seeking spiritual and physical healing. The temperature of the water in the font always remains at the level of 5 degrees. People believe that if you immerse yourself in this water three times, you can get rid of serious diseases, including infertility.
