About This Site

The Tunnel of Love is a breathtaking natural phenomenon formed by arching trees creating a leafy tunnel over an abandoned railway line. Often called one of the most romantic places on Earth, it has become a symbol of eternal love.

Stretching for over 4 kilometers near the village of Klevan, the Tunnel of Love is formed by intertwined branches of trees that have grown over and around an old railway line for decades. The dense canopy creates a magical, otherworldly atmosphere, especially when dappled sunlight filters through the leaves. The abandoned railway line still runs beneath the arching trees, creating a truly unique landscape.

Historical Significance

The railway was constructed during the Soviet era to transport timber from the region's forests. Over decades, trees grew up around and over the tracks, creating the natural tunnel phenomenon. Since the railway's abandonment, the tunnel has become increasingly lush and has transformed into one of Ukraine's most photogenic destinations.

The Tunnel of Love represents the power of nature to reclaim and transform human infrastructure. It has become a symbol of hope, renewal, and romance, attracting visitors from around the world seeking to experience its magical beauty.
