Roztocze

Roztocze or Roztochchia is a range of hills in southeastern Poland and western Ukraine which rises from the Lublin Upland and extends southeastward through Solska Forest and across the Polish-Ukrainian border, reaching Lviv. Largely rural and sparsely populated, the elongated range is approximately 180 km long and 14 km wide. Its highest peak within Poland is Wielki Dział at 390 meters, while in Ukraine it is Vysokyi Zamok (Lviv High Castle) at 409 meters. In Poland, Roztocze lies in the Lublin and Subcarpathian Voivodeships, while the section in Ukraine extends to the outskirts of Lviv. In 2011, UNESCO established the Roztochia Biosphere Reserve which in 2019 became a Transboundary Biosphere Reserve. The Polish part of the range constitutes the Roztocze National Park.
