The water from Source Yuzya is chemically distinct due to its high concentration of organic substances derived from peat and lignite layers.
Locals often refer to the water as 'glycerin water' due to its slightly oily, slick texture when applied to the skin.
Unlike many other mineral springs in Truskavets that are prescribed for internal use, Yuzya is frequently utilized as a topical cosmetic treatment.
The spring is named after Yuzya, a local figure whose legendary complexion inspired the popularity of the site.
The site operates within the protected natural zone of the Truskavets resort park, which strictly limits vehicular traffic.
Source Yuzya, commonly referred to as the 'Beauty Spring,' is a specialized mineral water pump room located in the Truskavets resort area of the Lviv region. The facility provides access to a specific type of mineral water characterized by low mineralization and high organic substance content, primarily glycerin-like compounds. It is widely visited for its supposed dermatological and cosmetic benefits, with many visitors using the water for facial washing or topical application. The water is sourced from local aquifers and dispensed through a centralized station. As of mid-2026, the facility continues to serve as a functional therapeutic point within the Truskavets park infrastructure. The structure is integrated into the town's pedestrian-friendly balneological zone. Its chemical profile differentiates it from the more famous Naftusya spring, which is primarily consumed internally for digestive health. The spring is a staple stop for health-focused wellness tourism in Western Ukraine.
