Quad biking in the Carpathians

The best and most exhilarating way to get to know the beautiful mountainous Transcarpathia is, without a doubt, quad biking in the Carpathians. In recent years this way of getting up into the mountain ridges of Transcarpathia has gained enormous popularity among tourists. And no wonder, because a quad bike is simple, fun, fast and convenient to ride, and best of all - the adrenaline is truly off the scale! Vivid, vibrant emotions, positivity and incredibly beautiful landscapes are absolutely guaranteed!

Where in the Carpathians can you go quad biking?

Today, in the Carpathians there are plenty of locations where you can take a thrilling ride on four wheels. The most popular routes are - the Borzhava meadows, the Watershed Ridge and routes across the grounds of the resort Voievodyno.

Traditionally, on the Borzhava Ridge the quad biking route starts from the village of Volovets. From here, in three hours, you can conquer the mountain peaks of Hemba, Velykyi Verkh and Plai, where a weather station is located. The length of the quad tours is approximately 35 km. It takes the same amount of time to ride your “iron beast” from Volovets up to the Veretskyi Pass (the Watershed Ridge in the Carpathians) - the distance to be covered is just over 40 km.

In addition, people often ride out from Volovets on quad bikes to the Beskydy mountain ridge, and from there - up to Mount Yavirnyk in the Velykyi Bereznyi district of Transcarpathia. Just 45 km in four hours - something a hiker on foot can only dream of! Of course, these routes can be varied at the request of the quad tour participants, with a new location added, more kilometres covered and more time as well: quad bike outings can last from one hour to two weeks.

The renowned Voievodyno resort sits in an ecologically clean and picturesque corner of the Carpathians, so the outings here - whether walking tours through the aristocratic Schönborn park, active horse-riding, or extreme quad biking - will leave absolutely no one indifferent.

Quad biking in the Carpathians: rules for a safe ride

The preparation for a quad tour is handled by an experienced professional instructor - it is he who accompanies the tourists throughout the entire ride. If necessary, participants of the excursion or tour are provided with all the kit they need - from gloves, riding goggles and clothing to helmets, body protection and knee pads. There is no need to worry - anyone can master quad biking.

A driving licence is not required; drivers who have reached the age of 18 are permitted to take the wheel. Children can ride quad bikes from the age of 12, but only as passengers and only accompanied by their parents. Those wishing to ride the “iron beast” must have no medical contraindications.

During a quad biking outing in the Carpathians you should follow all the instructor’s recommendations and directions. Hard-to-reach spots should be tackled at low speed, and if you are a beginner - then only behind the instructor and following his guidance.

Remember a few rules that will make your extreme break comfortable. When climbing uphill, lean your body forward, when descending - back, and to avoid tilting to the side - bend your body in the opposite direction. This will help you keep your centre of gravity from shifting and prevent you from tipping the quad bike over. When braking, shift your body slightly back - this will increase the load on the quad bike’s wheels.

The quad bike is obedient and manoeuvrable, but all fears and worries should be left behind before the journey begins. Quad biking in the Carpathians does not require any special experience, but the machine must be controlled at all times, like a bicycle or a motorcycle. Be ready for adrenaline, thrills, incredible adventures with obstacles, steep mountain climbs and descents, and for the astonishing panoramas of the beautiful Carpathians!
