Zagare Ridge

long undulating and picturesque hill, 8 km long, formed in the Ice Age. It is one of the longest sandy ridge in Lithuania but also perhaps the most attractive as there are no other hills around it. The sand was brought and deposited by rivers and streams running from glaciers. One of the most impressive part of the Ridge is Zvelgaitis Mound.

Baltic Mythology Park

Reviewed By KevinP345

The 80 sculptures carved from oak and located in this park (Witches Hill) are incredible. The stories and legends associated with them are fun and enjoyable. A person soon understands who Lithuania was Europe's last pagen state.

Vytauto Kalnas

Reviewed By levorg005 - Klaipeda, Lithuania

When you arrive at Birštonas, climbing Vytautas Hill is a must do. After you climb the 40 m high slope, you will be able to pause for breath on a beautifully arranged rest site. The site opens a fascinating panoramic view upon Birštonas town and Nemunas bend. The view is beautiful throughout the year, so climbing Vytautas Hill has become a ritual for Birštonas guests.

Curonian Spit / Kursiu Nerija National Park

Reviewed By Hawk470 - Baltimore, United States

Heading from Liepaja to Kaunas by car, we decided to detour, lunch in Klaipeda, and spend the afternoon in this ravishingly beautiful natural wonder. The short ferry ride dropped us on a spit of land stretching north from the closed Russian enclave in the former East Prussia to almost touch Lithuania at Klaipeda. This unique narrow strip offers many types of natural beauty with distinct experiences on the bay side and the side facing the Baltic Sea. Shifting sand dunes, lovely beaches, pine forests, hills to climb with magnificent views in all directions crowned by those startlingly beautiful Baltic clouds, wildlife galore, and, for a change of pace, the opportunity to glimpse the Russian border, complete with armed guards. The Spit also has several villages with lots of charm, inns, restaurants and vacation homes. The main one is Nida toward the southern end of the Spit. We visited in the off-season, so we avoided the crowds, but enjoyed unseasonably pleasant weather. We drove and stopped to walk in various places, but were left wishing we had more time. Time to be captured by the relaxed seaside pace, time to hike or bike deeper into the abundant beauty, and time to breathe more of that ever so fresh air. What started as a spontaneous, quick detour, became one of the most memorable stops on our Baltic journey.

Neris Regional Park

Reviewed By 212dainiusj

Take a weekend escape from Vilnius at „Karmazinai cognitive trail“ near Dūkštos, about 30 km from Vilnius centre. This is a nice section of „Neris regional park“ , a newly renovated 6,5-7 km trail. It takes about 2,5 – 3 hours of slowly walk. Restored some of man-formed barrows - burial places of the Baltic tribesmen from the 5th-8th cent. AD.

One hour from hotel. Fantastic place. A lot of piliakalnis local name for fortress hills in a large valley where a river flows. Incredibly relaxing place. There is also an archaeological museum.
