The mountain lies between the 1878  m high Dzembronja in the southeast and the 2036  m high Brebeneskul in the northwest on the border of the Transcarpathian Oblast and the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast .

Since the 1998 meter high mountain is still two meters short to count as 2000 , a group of activists wanted to build an artificial hill on top of the mountain in 2009 to raise it to 2000 meters.
