Hi, maybe you guys can help me out. I always wanted to travel by rail in that part of Poland and since no visa needed to Ukraine, then to Ukrainian side as well, but I have trouble finding valid schedule or any other info. Can you help? Because the only thing I keep finding is some german report from a few years ago

To our knowledge the cross border service on that line had been suspended until further notice (AFAIR, since last winter and PKP didn't renew the service during the summer either)

Yes, trains from Poland to Khyriv was canceled and no hope for it to be renewed.

Now it is possible to travel by rails between Poland and Ukraine only in sleeping cars of long-distance trains. No local trains and even no seating cars in those long distance trains on crossborder section - border crossing between Poland and Ukraine is possible only in expensive sleepers. Slightly cheaper (but also it was overpriced for crossborder riding) "platzkartny" cars, which were in train 51/52 - have also been canceled since last month.

It's a pity, but anyway thanks for the information guys.
Btw, what about buses? Any regular bus connection instead? Since according to the map there is a road number 84 going from Sanok via Zagorz to Kroscienko and then Ukraine, so there suppose to be something, doesn't it? I just wanted to travel via Khyriv on the way there, while come back via Mostiska-Przemysl. I guess suggested by Maxy sleeper trains go via that border crossing.

Well, maybe Maxy can correct us, but we didn't find any regular cross-border bus lines in that region. Even buses like Przemysl-Stryj go not via Nyzhankovychi-Khyriv, but via more common Medyka-Shegyni, so it's actually might be a difficult task to travel by public transport from Sanok to Khyriv via Kroscienko-Smilnytsia border crossing

Among buses from bus stations - I'm sure only about bus Truskavets - Plzen - it uses border-crossing in Smilnytsia-Kroscienko, but this bus doesn't have tariff stops in Poland - so minimal possible travel on this bus is Smilnytsia - Hradec Kralove - from last Ukrainian stop to first stop in Czech Republic :-(

Ustrzyky Dolne is known destination among Leopolitans for skiing, so some tourist agencies in Lviv provide "charter" buses Lviv - Ustrzyky Dolne. Buying only bus transfer (without hotel in Ustrzyky and other tourist services) is usually possible, paying only for OW transfer - too, but the problem is to find the agency that arrange a transfer in the day you need and deal with them. It can be not an easy for foreigner.
