Goal. Development of a two-day educational hike with student youth along one of the most visited ranges of the Carpathians - the Svidovets massif. Training in a competent approach to the organization and conduct of mountain hiking, trouble-free passage of routes. Advanced training in the field of travel, students who master the curriculum within the Faculty of Geography. Where training is provided for tourist sections, clubs, tour operators and other tourist organizations. The research methodology is based on the application of the methodology for the development of hiking tourist routes. Methods of description, comparison, analysis and generalization were also used. In determining the specific sub-area within which the route was laid, cartographic materials were used: tourist map «Svydivets» (2018) scale 1:50000 and mobile application Mapy.cz. Accordingly, with their help, the relief of the territory was assessed and the need to use certain technical means to pass the track was determined. The scientific novelty lies in the development of a two-day educational walking route as an element of the educational process. This training route is a logical continuation of the disciplines «School Tourism» and «Geography of Outdoor and Indoor Correction» in the formation of relevant practical skills. The formation of skills is a logical final element of the formation of the relevant competencies of the modern student: knowledge (obtaining in lectures) - skills (performing tasks in seminars) - skills (application of acquired knowledge and skills in practice). Results. A two-day walking tourist route has been developed in the Svidovets massif with the «conquest» of the very top of Mount Bolshaya Bliznitsa. This route was completed on July 15-16, 2019 by 2nd year students of the Faculty of Geography of KNUTSh specialties «geography of recreation and tourism», «secondary education» and «regional development management». Accordingly, the planned hike for students allowed to gain some knowledge in the field of behavior in the mountain environment, learn certain rules, regulations in the organization of sports tourism, which in the future will increase the safety of hiking and active tours in the mountains. The practical value lies in the formation of skills for organizing and conducting hiking tours, movement in mountainous areas, organizing a camp, cooking food in the field. This route is included in the professionally oriented practice for 2nd year students of the Faculty of Geography of the specialties «recreational geography and tourism» and «secondary education».
