Cycle to Palanga resort along the Lithuanian Seaside Cycle Route leading through Giruliai Forest and the Seaside Regional Park. On route explore the Dutchman’s Cap – a 24-meter-high coastal cliff and Plaze Lake. In Palanga you can visit the Botanical Park and Amber Museum, cycle along J.Basanavius pedestrian street with many cafes & restaurants and explore the 470m pier heading into the Baltic Sea.

Transfer by minibus to the inland where start your cycling ride on picturesque countryside roads through Pamarys meadows to Šilute. This region is known as a land of storks and the White Stork truly deserves it’s place as Lithuanian’s national bird. On route stop in Švekšna village to explore the estate with the beautiful park and impressive neo-gothic church of St.Jacob the Apostle.

Explore Šilute, a town named after "Šilokarema" (a pub in the pine forest) and go for a return cycling trip to Rusne Island, Lithuania’s only island, located in the Nemunas River Delta Regional Park. When you stand on the bank of the Nemunas River in Rusn, you see the Russian oblast of Kaliningrad just 100 metres across the river. On route you can explore a traditional fisherman’s smallholding at the Rusne museum, the old water pumping station and the 19th C lighthouse in Uostadvaris Harbour.

Cycling to Vent? Cape where you may visit a renowned bird ringing station with a museum of ornithology and the 19th C lighthouse which has a panoramic view of the unique landscape including a glimpse of the glistening Curonian Spit sand dunes. Today, one million birds pass through the station each migratory period. Take a boat to cross the Curonian Lagoon to Nida. Arrive in Nida followed by a bike ride to the hotel.

Free day in Nida which is an old fishmen’s village on the Curonian Spit washed by the Baltic Sea from one side and the Curonian Lagoon from other side. Today Nida is the largest settlement of the town of Neringa and one of the most beautiful resorts in Lithuania. Cycle or walk along impressive sand dunes and visit the most popular places of interest – the Fisherman’s House, the summer house of famous German writer Thomas Mann, and the Amber Gallery.

Cycling on an asphalt bike path of the Seaside Cycle Route which takes you along the Curonian Spit to Klaipeda. On route you can explore the "Dead" sand dunes on foot, watch a colony of grey herons and cormorants, visit the Hill of Witches which houses a hundred fanciful and folksy wooden sculptures of Lithuanian legends scattered along a forest path, swim in the Baltic Sea or, relax, take the sun on golden beaches.

This was our first holiday in Lithuania and we found it a very good introduction to the country. Hotels were all of an acceptable standard, some much better than this. All were well located for local restaurants. We had some excellent meals out...H.R. 07/18
