Description
Summary:The ecological, geographical and historical prerequisites for creation of a nature reserve on the territory of Northern Podillya are clarified. Most of the territory of the Brodivskyi District of Lviv Region is located on the Bridska Plain, the south of which crosses the low-mountainous complex of Voroniaky, which is a part of the Podolian Upland. The current state of NNP Northern Podillya, in particular, the territory of the Memo Peniatska Complex Nature Memorial of local importance and Makitra State Botanical Reserve of Local Importance, is analyzed; biodiversity, landscape, historical and cultural features of these territories, as well as the existing ecological and cognitive tourist routes, are identified and studied. The Memo Peniatska Reserve was not only the first natural reserve in the territory of Western Ukraine, but also one of the first in Europe. The Makitra Reserve is the only place in Western Ukraine, where the steppe vegetation is preserved. Today on the territory of the NNP four ecological and cognitive tourist routes are already laid. The nature protection activity of Earl V.Didushytskyi is characterized, in particular, the creation of the Memo Peniatska Nature Reserve to preserve beech forests and protect the nesting site for a rare bird speciessuch as the White-tailed eagle, and also the foundation of the Natural History Museum in Lviv. The expediency of development of a new ecological and cognitive tourist route on the territory of Northern Podillya is justified to continue nature protection activity begun by Earl V.Didushytskyi in the region. The creation of a two-day ecological and cognitive tourist route "By the Roads of Earl Volodymyr Didushytskyi" (Lviv– Brody– Pidkamin– Penniaky– Plisnesk– Pidhirtsi– Lviv) is proposed and excursion objects included in this route are described in detail. The importance of newly created route for preserving valuable natural, historical and cultural complexes and objects of Brodivshchyna is analyzed. For promoting of environmental activities in the ...
