The city of Hust is located at the confluence of the river Rika with the tisu at a distance of 112 kilometers from the regional center. The Uzhgorod–Solotvino railway and the Uzhgorod-Rakhov highway pass through the city. The population of Khust is about thirty thousand people.
There is a version that the name of the city of Hust is an abbreviation of the names of the crown cities of the Maramorosh zhupa, namely: Gossumese-Long Field-Campolung (now in Romania) – “G”; Uishk – Vyshkovo – “V”; Sygit – Sigetul Marmara (now in Romania) – “S”; Techo – tychev – “T”. Thus, the first letters of the names of these cities gave the name of the city "GUST", which was later transformed into Hust.
The Sinevir brown bear rehabilitation center is a huge, ecologically clean territory with an area of more than 12 hectares. It is enclosed by a fence that is electrically energized. Synevir national nature Park was chosen for the construction of such a center not by chance. Its natural and climatic conditions and location fully meet the needs of brown bears. In the upper part of the center there are 6 cages and 2 sections for keeping bears with different ages and health conditions. There are also pools and dens. Tourists have the opportunity to observe clubfoot through special nets and fences.
