Horbachykha information

Horbachykha is a tract within the city of Kyiv (Dniprovskyi District), on the left bank of the Dnieper river, which is washed by the Chortoryi Strait, just downstream of the Rybalskyi Railway Bridge. Its territory is reserved for the creation of a 82.8-hectare protected area. Horbachykha is the last and the only remnant of floodplain forests of the left bank of the Dnieper river within Kyiv, the rest of the floodplain forests in the area have been completely destroyed.

The name of the tract stems most likely from the name of the Horbachiv strait, which flows between the Dolobetskyi island and Horbachykha.
