    Very nice trail through the heart of the Nationalpark Aukštaitija. What's especially nice is that it offers a lot of great things to explore along the route: observation tower, information boards about the history or the bee museum 🐝.

    Really enjoyed this route as a tourist. Walking from Vilnius was more uphill but not too bad. Bring bug spray as there were warnings of ticks.

    This is path that goes over the old railway Olita - Orany. The tracks disappeared but the remains of old railway structures appears all over the way. The trails starts at Alytus old railway station, and ends at Varena rail station. On the way you pass highest pedestrian bridge in Lithuania and the travel over forest and meadows of Lithuania. 90 percents of trail goes by gravel road, you get few kilometers of asphalt and little throe forest hike along the way. The is also river Merkis on the road you can cross ir by swimming or you can go by the bridge that is few kilometers away from original path.

    Wenn Sie von Nida in den Bezirk Šilutė mit der Fähre gefahren sind, fangen Sie dann Ihre Wanderung im telmologischen Schutzgebiet an. In Aukštumala entdecken Sie ein Hochmoor, worauf ein 1,2 km langer Erkundungspfad angelegt ist. Der Pfad schlängelt sich auf dem ehemaligen Steinpflaster und bildet eine einbahnige Route von 11 Stationen. Das Moor ist eines der größten auf dem Territorium Litauens, dessen Fläche zusammen mit dem Torfboden daneben über 2500 ha beträgt. Während der Wanderung im wunderschönen Grünen bekommen Sie eine seltene Möglichkeit zu erfahren, wie dieses Moor entstanden ist. Da genießen Sie smaragdgrüne Augen kleiner sumpfiger Seen, erkennen die Pflanzen, die im feuchten Boden gewachsen sind. Es ist höchst wahrscheinlich, dass Sie hier den graziösen Goldregenpfeifer laufend erblicken, auch den langhasigen Kranich oder den Seeadler mit hoch ausgebreiteten Flügeln.
