Buky Canyon is a canyon near the village Buky, on the Hyrskyi Tikych river in the Cherkasy Oblast (province) of Ukraine. It is relatively small, approximately 5 km (or 3 miles) long, 20 m (22 yd.) deep and anywhere from 20 to 40 m wide. This canyon was formed by the Hirskyi Tikych river in the crystalline rocks of the Ukrainian Shield. These Precambrian granitic rocks create a picturesque landscape in the form of steep cliffs and tumultuous rapids.
