Top Extreme Sports in Ukraine

For sledding, head to the area near the Adventure Park. It’s less crowded than the main sledding hills and you can really enjoy the ride without waiting.

If you're a beginner, consider taking a short lesson first. I didn’t, and it took me a while to get comfortable on the skates, wasting a bit of my time.

My advice is to bring your own skates if you can. Rental skates were a bit worn out when I tried them, plus it's cheaper if you've got your own!

Bring your own snacks and drinks! The food prices inside are a bit steep, and it was nice to take a break with something familiar. Plus, I think it helps save some cash for other activities.

I recommend going during off-peak hours, like on a weekday afternoon. The rink was way less crowded, and I had way more space to practice my skating moves without bumping into anyone!

Check out their schedule online for lesson times before you go. I missed a class because I thought they ran all day. It was a bummer, but at least I got to chat with some friendly trainers.

If you're planning to ride, definitely wear comfortable clothes and closed-toe shoes. I didn't and it made the experience a bit awkward. Bring some snacks to keep your energy up too!

I suggest booking your tickets online to avoid those long lines at the entrance. Trust me, it saves soooo much time, and you won’t be standing around impatiently!

I think it’s best to visit right when they open, like at 9 AM. The crowds get pretty wild later in the day, so you can enjoy the cave more peacefully and snap better pics.

I suggest bringing a good pair of shoes! The trails can be slippery and uneven and I almost slipped a few times. Trust me you don't want to be worried about your footing instead of enjoying the views
