This journey begins in my hometown of Kamianske, Ukraine, and follows the rugged right bank of the Dnipro River in search of hidden granite cliffs shaped by the Ice Age thousands of years ago.
What starts as a simple cycling trip quickly turns into an unexpected adventure through deep ravines, winding forest trails, steep climbs, and breathtaking viewpoints overlooking one of Europe’s great rivers. Along the way, I discover places I never expected to find so close to home.
As evening approaches, the journey slows down. I search for a quiet campsite, cook dinner under the open sky, and spend the night surrounded by nature before continuing the adventure the next day.
Dream Trails is a cinematic travel journal about exploring the landscapes of Ukraine by bicycle and on foot. No rush, no challenges to beat—just the joy of discovering beautiful places, telling their stories, and sharing the experience with those who love nature, photography, and slow travel.
If you enjoy bikepacking, hiking, wild landscapes, camping, and peaceful documentary-style adventures, I hope you’ll feel at home here.
Thank you for watching, and welcome to Dream Trails.
