We decided to celebrate Christmas 2011 in Vyzhenka (Vyzhnytsya district, Chernivtsi region). Since there are a lot of people who want to leave Kyiv for the New Year holidays and Christmas, I started looking for housing in the "green estates" in September. There are very few reviews about vacations in Chernivtsi region, I collected information on crumbs. Then I called the owners and somewhere in late October decided that we were going for Christmas to Maria and Elijah Klim - estate "Rest in Marichki". Knowing the excitement with tickets for the New Year holidays, I bought tickets for 45 days round trip Kyiv-Chernivtsi-Kyiv. We still had to get to Vyzhenka from Chernivtsi. And since there are 4 bus stations in Chernivtsi, it was not possible to find out how to get to Vyzhnytsia: everyone reported different information, so after arriving in Chernivtsi we went to Drizhzavod bus station (3 stops by trolleybus № 3.5) and learned that the minibus left at 9 am , next at 15.

00 and now you have to try to get on a minibus that departs from the bus station "Kalinovsky Market". The minibus approached and the assault began: it was getting dark and I don't know how many people and things could fit in the minibus. And so, standing on one leg, clamped on all sides, in 1.5 hours we arrived at the Vyzhnytsia bus station. The first thing they did was buy a return ticket to Chernivtsi with seats.


As it turned out later, minibuses go to Vyzhnytsia every half an hour from 9.30 to 15.00 from the bus station "Kalinovsky Market", at the bus station "Drizhzavod" minibuses, which take place on holidays, get on them is problematic. From Vyzhnytsia to Vyzhenka 6.5 km, no public transport, only a taxi - 15 hryvnias. The house of the Klim family is located on the outskirts of Vyzhenka on a hill, which offers beautiful views of the outskirts of Vyzhenka and mountains covered with beech trees and Carpathian trees.

Mistress Marichka has already met us and immediately attracted us with her warmth and hospitality. The house on the second floor has several rooms for vacationers, showers, toilets, washbasins - an area of ​ ​.10 square meters - common to all rooms (this is certainly not very comfortable, but the owners are aware of this shortcoming and plan to solve this problem in the future). On the 1st floor there is a dining room with a large table and beautiful wooden benches, vacationers are fed here, there is also a large plasma TV for all vacationers. Water is supplied to the house from a mountain spring: crystal clear and delicious. Meals 2 times, all only from natural products, there is a cow, chickens, a vegetable garden, an apiary with several beehives, 2 working horses for entertainment of vacationers. Portions are normal and you can always ask for supplements, you will never be denied, and tea on mountain herbs around the clock and not in limited quantities.

But in and around the house it was bright, festive and light. January 7 was a festive breakfast and a hike to the pass Nimcic, climbing the mountain at 45 degrees about 3 km. There was not enough snow, the lifts were working, but how many ascents and descents there are - 300 m. But the day is sunny, the temperature is 0 degrees, everyone is in a good mood! We visited the restaurant "Chervona Ruta" on the pass. The decorated restaurant is beautiful and original, but served for a VERY long time, the cuisine is mediocre. On January 8, they were on duty in the ancient church of Vyzhenka, then went to the tract "Luzhki", 5 km from the house in one direction, but the views are stunning! On January 9, after breakfast we went to Chernivtsi, walked around Chernivtsi (beautiful, cozy city, it's bad that the streets are not cleared of snow). We went to the inn "Wheel", served quickly, we were alone, but the kitchen is mediocre and instead of white mushrooms are served mushrooms. Kyiv was greeted by a gray, gloomy morning and misty rain.

There were weekdays ahead, but vivid memories of a vacation in Vyzhenka, an acquaintance with the wonderful Klim family will warm your soul with warmth and joy that are waiting for you in a remote corner of Bukovina, you are happy. We think that in the summer Marichka will have a good rest for mothers with children: steamed milk, natural products, a mountain river below with a place for swimming and air that fills the lungs with its purity. The village has 2 shops with everything you need, Vyzhnytsia has more shops and a market.
