Sokolohirne (; ) is a village in Henichesk Raion (district) in Kherson Oblast of southern Ukraine, at about east by south (EbS) of the centre of Kherson city. It belongs Henichesk urban hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.
== History == The village was officially founded in 1874. The name Sokolohirne comes from the surname of the owner of the lands on which the village was founded. After its occupation by the Soviet Union in 1918, the collective farm "Red Banner" was organized. In 1930, it was later renamed Path of Ilyich, which managed 4,00 hectares of agricultural land. During the Great Patriotic War, 420 residents of the village fought against the Germans, and after Soviet liberation from the Germans, the village was used by Soviet intelligence agents utilizing radio transmitters to collect and transmit information.
