Enjoy a list of free things to do and free places to visit in Ukraine prepared by us in a form of a travel tips guide. We decided to help you with things to do around for free in Ukraine when realized how popular is the topic of free things to do in a particular country in comparison to the others among travelers. So, we have picked up the most famous useful and special places, activities and free things to do for those, who plans visiting Ukraine. Here we go:
- The first in the list are Ukrainian museums! They are the most underpriced stuff in Ukraine. Some of the are even free. The ticket prices usually aren’t higher than 1-2 $. The most famous Ukrainian museum is Pinchuk Contemporary Art Center in Kiev (Kyiv). You can find more information about Ukrainians museums and particular this one following the link.
- Carpathian Mountains in Western part of Ukraine. They are gorgeous and truly amazing for hiking or trekking. And they are completely free. Just take a map, compass/gps and go ahead to explore Ukrainian virgin forests. It’s also free to camp anywhere you wish all over Carpathians. Forests and vallyes are full of mushrooms and berries which you can also collect for free (try it to do in UK, Germany and Norway 😉
If you find them – you can stay for free in shepherd houses. They are designated for locals and tourist to shelter anyone who cannot reach home at some time/or who travels. Please check the best ways of exploring Carpathians here. - municipal Wi-FI in Ukrainian cities. Free wi-fi spots in Kyiv, Lviv, Odessa and other cities isn’t a miracle but a mere necessity.
- you can also find pending coffee (free coffee for those who need it) in Ukrainian coffee houses around the country. Just ask at barista.
- street bicycle workshops in Lviv, Kyiv and Ivano-Frankivsk.
- free tourist maps in tourist information centers in Lviv, Chernivtsi, Kyiv, Odessa. The maps will not tell you any free things to do, but you may check our web-site or just ask locals and they will help you easily.
In conclusion, we want to say, that this list doesn’t end with the last point but can be enhanced by your own creativity and ability to look for or negotiate with locals. Just try it and you will probably succeed as Ukrainians are utterly open and willing to help people.
