The principal stages of high Pliocene and low Pleistocene history of the Dniester basin development in Halicia and Ivano-Frankivsk region on the basis of the detailed morphological, morphometric analysis of the Dniester terraces as well as its Carpathian streams and the analysis of cut terraces. The fundamental geomorphological research of Loyeva, Krasna rivers levels has been done and some determined provisions about their structure, development and time of formation were defined. Paleogeographic events are related with the stages of isotopic-oxygen scale, paleomagnetic rappers, stratigraphic horizons of loess and soil series of the Halician Dniester region. Key words: level of Krasna river, level of Loyeva river, terrace, isotopic-oxygen stage, tectonic raising, erosive cutting, alluvium accumulation.
