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.
