Lake Synevyr is rightly considered the most precious natural treasure of the eponymous National Nature Park and one of the hallmarks of the Ukrainian Carpathians. It is located at an altitude of 989 meters above sea level. There is a legend that the picturesque lake was formed from a stream of tears of the count's daughter Sin, to the place where her beloved, a simple Verkhovyna shepherd Vir, was killed by a stone pit on the orders of the insidious count. In fact, Synevyr Lake was formed in the post-glacial period, about 10 thousand years ago, as a result of landslides blocking the river valley.
