Стаття наразі тільки російською — поки що не перекладено.

Created in 1968 to protect the environment, plants, and animals of the Ukrainian Carpathian Mountains (until then only game preserves existed). The reserve, with an area of 18,500 ha, is composed of three complexes. Two of them cover the Chornohora range, which contains the highest peaks of the Carpathian Mountains—Hoverlia (2,061 m) and Pip Ivan (2,022 m)—and is covered with fir, spruce, and beech-spruce forests. The third, the Uhlia-Shyrokyi Luh complex, lies in Transcarpathia oblast on the southern slope of Mount Menchul (1,500 m) in a region of unique ancient beech forests. The deer, mountain goat, lynx, brown bear, and other species are protected at the reserve.BIBLIOGRAPHY
