Makovytsia (Ukrainian: Маковиця; Polish: Makowica) is a mountain within the Gorgany mountain range, in Ukraine's Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast. It has a height of 984 m (3,228 ft), and is located near the city of Yaremche. Makovytsia is part of the Carpathian National Nature Park. A campsite is located on the mountain, but it does not have hot water. There are two trails on the mountain; the first is a 9 km (5.6 mi) hiking trail on the mountain, known as "Dovbush's Trail" after folk hero Oleksa Dovbush, while the second is a shorter trail, starting as part of Yaremche's Ivan Franko Street and passing by a local chapel and homes. According to local legend, Makovytsia was the site of a pre-Christian temple where sacrifices were conducted. A wooden cross, as well as a statue of the Mary, mother of Jesus and two angels, has been erected on the mountain with the intention of warding off evil spirits.
