Abstract: The article dwells on the ecological, economic, social, demographic and ethno-cultural challenges suffered by rural mountain territories in Ukraine. The authors analyze the legislative provisions and conclude that orientation at direct state support for the social and economic development of mountain territories through budget allocations is inefficient and requires addendums. Special attention is paid to the elaboration of the state program of Ukrainian Carpathians sustainable development. The creation of the priority development territories in mountain territories is suggested as another efficient way to overcome their problems. The need and advantages of participation in the programs of EU technical assistance in order to improve infrastructure and increase employment in rural mountain areas are highlighted.
