Poloniny National Park

Poloniny National Park is Slovakia's easternmost national park, situated in the Bukovské vrchy mountain range along the country's borders with Poland and Ukraine. Established on October 1, 1997, the park encompasses approximately 40,688 hectares of mountainous terrain in the Prešov Region's Snina District, making it one of the least populated areas of Slovakia. The park's name derives from the local term "poloniny," referring to the characteristic montane meadows that dot the main ridge of the Bukovské vrchy. The park forms part of the East Carpathian Biosphere Reserve together with Poland's Bieszczady National Park, creating a transboundary protected area of significant ecological importance. The highest point within the park reaches 1,208 meters at Mount Kremenec, where the borders of Slovakia, Poland, and Ukraine meet.
