Avanhard (Cyrillic: Авангард) is a ski resort and a main sports base for Olympic preparation[1][2] in the town of Vorokhta, Ukraine. It is the biggest out of five still operational ski jumping facilities in the country and one of three located in the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast. Vorokhta is frequently associated with the resort and the resort is often referred to simply as Vorokhta or as the "Ramps of Vorokhta" (Ukrainian: Трампліни у Ворохті).
The resort is popular among both domestic and international athletes. During the times of the Soviet Union, and currently in Ukraine, Avanhard was and is considered to have the best complex of ski ramps.[3]
