Boikivshchyna National Nature Park

Boikivshchyna National Nature Park (Національний природний парк «Бойківщина») is a national park in the Carpathian Mountains, in Lviv Oblast of Ukraine. It was created to protect alpine landscapes of Beskids as well as forests in the valleys of the Vododilnyi Range, including the upper Dniester valley.

The park was officially created on 11 April 2019 when Petro Poroshenko, then the president of Ukraine, signed the corresponding decree. It was originally located in Turka Raion, however, after during the administrative reform in 2020 the raion was abolished and merged into Sambir Raion.
