🛶

Dniester Canyon

Spectacular meandering loops of the Dniester River as it carves through the Podolian Upland.

🏘️

Transnistria Border

Black Sea Coast

The right side is the clear winner for the approach into Odessa. Depending on the wind direction, you may fly directly over the Dniester Estuary. Afternoon flights offer a stunning golden glow over the river canyons of Western Ukraine.
