National Natural Park Podilskyi Tovtry

Tovtry - the local name for an arc-shaped rocky hillside, the elevation within NNP is 401 meters above sea level. These hills rise for a distance of 60-65 meters from the surrounding plain.

Toftri is a barrier reef from the Miocene Sea and is made up of different types of limestone.

There are no world comparisons, although there are some similar geological structures of rocky ridges in Great Britain and the United States.

Toftri is a remnant of coral reefs running parallel to the ancient shoreline. These reefs had originated in the middle and upper part of the Miocene. Toftri began to form on the bases of coastal reefs, where there were concentrations of different types of minerals.

The microclimate of Brednestrovia (the area along the Dniester in the Kamianets region) is formed by the Toftree Ridge, the Dniester valleys and the Dniester flows. Therefore, special conditions have been formed for the preservation of rare and found plants, among which are most medicinal plants.
