Pensiunea Catalina

WELCOME TO THE WALLS!

Catalina Guesthouse is located in Obcina Mestecanisului, on the Lucave valley (affluent of the Moldavian River), in the "Lucina Coat", at an altitude of approximately 1200 m. In the immediate vicinity is the highest peak of Obcinele Bucovinei - Lucina Peak (1588 m). From the historical point of view, the pension overlaps with the road of the first scraper - Dragoş Voda (1352 - 1353), the Maramureş voivode that laid the foundations of the state of Moldova. A brief analysis of the legend of the establishment of the Moldovan state points out that we are close to the place where the hunting partner of the voivode, the Moldavian network, the one from which he has drawn his name and the voivodate, found its end. We are here in the vicinity of the Tartars' Road, a route that Gingis Han's descendants used to attack the famous Republic of Poland - until the uprising of Bogdan Hmelnitsky from 1648 to 1654, when Ukraine was broken to Poland and annexed to the Tsarist Russia. The proof of the existence of this Mongol road is also the names of peaks, peaks, tihes or waters: Tătarca Tătărcuţa, etc. In the immediate vicinity of Cătălina Pension there is the Lucina Herghelia, one of the oldest hunting units in our country. Used since 1787 as alpine pasture for the young horseradish of Rădăuţi herring, the Lucina studs become horse studs Huţuli in 1856. It should be remembered that from 1774 until the Great Union of 1918, this area of ​​Moldavia, Bucovina (formerly called Ţara Upper, Plonina, Cordun or Arboroasa) was under the occupation of the Habsburg Empire. This explains why the founder of a 100% Romanian breed is an Austrian knight - Martin von Hermann - colonel of infantry. He noticed the special qualities and abilities of local horses, attributes that recommended the use of specimens in the Hussite Army's mitraliers and mountain hunters. At the insistence of the Austrian Colonel, the hut breed was formed, initially starting from a number of 5 mares purchased from the area. In 1918, with the reunification of the people and the joining of Bucovina, the entire Hutship horses were transferred to Austria. The state of Austria then organizes auctions for the sale of horses, but Romania, due to its status at war, was only invited to participate in the final phase. Moreover, some lines were lost during the war, including Ceremus, Taras, Mişca and Ştirbu. From this moment, a sustained work of Romanian specialists begins. Only the Goral and Hroby lines could be restored, but in the interwar period three other genealogical lines are still based: Ousor - purchased in 1923 from Odorhei, Pietrosu - purchased both from Odorhei and Prislop - this being a branch of the Goral line.  Nowadays, the Lucina studs are the largest stud farm of hull in the world. Growth occurs in genelogic lines (father lines), the names of these lines being given by the names of certain places in the area: Hroby, Ousor, Pietrosu, Prislop. The only line that does not have such a name is the Goral line, which is imported from Galicia. However, the name Goral is attributed to an ethnic minority living in the Carpathian Mountains, a minority that is related to the Huts. Less than 500 m away from the guest house is the botanical reserve "Tinovul Găina - Lucina" representing a mountain area of ​​oligotrophic swamps (tallow in nutrients, covered with peaty arctic moss) in whose territory vegetates several floral species (some very rare), including the dwarf birch (Betula nana). The guesthouse is practically surrounded by the "Gina - Lucina" site with three types of habitat: alluvial forests with ash and ash, active peat and ravines with forest vegetation. which shelters and preserves a diverse faunistic and floral range, characteristic of the Carpathian chain of the Oriental. Local wildlife consists of a diverse range of mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians, some of which are protected. Here we remember the brown bear, the wolf and the laughter between the large carnivores protected. Here we can also meet the carpathian stag, the boar, the boar, the jar, the raven, the mountain eagle, the red mountain frog, etc. The spontaneous local flora consists of grasses, flowers, trees and shrubs, including pinus, larynx, willow, cranberry, cranberry, raspberries, and tasty mushrooms from the family of hribs, geese, and gall bladders.
