The most famous Ukrainian spa resorts are Truskavets and Skhidnytsia. The healing power of their naftusia mineral water and the hot ozocerite treatments were widely known already more than 100 years ago during Austro-Hungarian rule, when Poles, Slovaks, Germans and Czechs traveled here for treatments. People who leave here after either a 12-day or 24-day treatment period claim they have never felt better in their lives.

Truskavets is the largest mineral spa complex in Ukraine, it is a historic resort with its Austro-Hungarian wood architecture, beautiful churches, and a park with magnolia and chestnut trees. Truskavec is full life city, here you will find night club/casino, first run films in the cinema, will be able to attend concerts by some of Ukraine’s most popular pop star.

Skhidnytsia is a small city surrounded by the mountains. It has everything and more for the tourist who wants tranquility and a degree of seclusion to recuperate and recharge himself in the splendor and solitude of the lower Carpathians. Here you will find absolutely no nightclubs or bars (just a few good cafes).

But most who have traveled to the spas of Germany and Central Europe say that Ukrainian spas meets the standard of the great European ones in every way. They have the required treatments and procedures of a first rate spa and they have the required mineral water, the prized naftusia. They have one more thing as well, a much more affordable price, which is therapy for the pocket book as well.
