Dzukija National Park

The largest national park in Lithuania, which is Dzukija National Park, with a total area of 550 square kilometers, is located on the edge of the Belarusian border in the country's extreme south-east corner. It's covered in vast swaths of pine woods and riparian wetlands, all of which are cut through by the Nemunas River's meandering courses.

Inland dunes are another fascinating feature, rising and falling to sandy peaks and troughs and supporting a diverse range of grasses and rock layers. For those wearing hiking boots, boardwalk hikes plunge deep into the woods, while mushrooms blossom in the undergrowth and traditional waxwork manufacturing abounds in the rural settlements.

This private Dzukija National Park trip will give you a firsthand experience of Lithuanian countryside. The local guide will take you on a tour of the charming ancient villages, architectural and cultural landmarks, natural wonders, and beautiful scenery. You'll learn about the Soviet government's policies, atrocities, and ideological Soviet propaganda culture during your trip to Grutas Park.
