It is located on the border of Stryi Raion (Lviv Oblast) and Velykyi Bereznyi Raion (Zakarpattia Oblast), on the watershed of San River and Uzh River. The pass is also close to the Poland-Ukraine border. In World War I, the pass was the scene of fierce fighting between the advancing Russian Army and the defending Austro-Hungarian forces in the winter of 1914–1915.
