I haven't seen anything similar before and therefore I would recommend you to visit Nida and experience the dunes.
I recently returned from a trip to the three Baltic States - Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia. I thoroughly enjoyed visiting all three countries, which until a year ago, I did not know much about the history or geography of this region. The tour guides were excellent, and I particularly enjoyed enjoyed the three days I spent in the beach resort town of Nida, Lithuania. I visited the sand dunes, and took a dip in the Baltic Sea. Nida is only two miles from the Russian Border. For those California residents, it reminded me of Morro Bay/Cambria/Big Sur along the California Central Coast.I booked the trip through Vertical Horizons Travel (www/verticalhorizonstravel.com), my 4th trip in 11 years with this tour company and I have been pleased with the organization, tour guides, and accommodations provided throughout each of the trips. The Baltic states was probably my favorite. Plenty of history, beautiful countries, an abundance of castles, art, forests and parks. The food was very good, and be sure to try the beer.Tim Adams
The walk from Nida to the dunes through the forest is magical, the views from above spectacular. One can spend a good couple of hours up there just taking in the sites, walking to close to the Russian border (okay, to the boundary of the Reserve), visiting the sundial and watching as the shadows move across the steps. It's a fabulous place to just take a book, kick back behind a dune and let the mind wander. Enjoy!
Beautiful dunes, definitely worth a visit. Hike, enjoy the spectacular view and take memorable pictures.
A walk up onto the dunes is a must in Nida and I suggest walking into the woods towards the Russian border is a must as well. You may get lucky and see wild boar and moose (so be careful)
My wife was born and raised in Lithuania and she always raves about Nida. In fact, this is where she'd like to have some of her ashes scattered. It's a very pleasant and accessible park in western Lithuania. We spent an evening there most recently, enjoying sunset, the gentle breezes and the quiet. Our kids love to run and climb and play in the sand!
A unique landscape that is strictly recommend when you will visit the area of Klaipeda Nature at its best would like to visit again summer time !!!!
Born at the Baltic sea you can not avoid it to love the sand dunes! It s just a paradise of sand and wind and salty air of the Baltic sea!
The end of the August was a great time to visit this beautiful place - it was still very warm, but there were less people, so we could fully enjoy the peace of this place and explore the surreal nature of dunes.
I have seen sand dune in white color at Socotra island but not in light green ! Stunning view, the whole national park is amazing. Although was in December , it is not as cold as expected. I enjoyed walking and viewing the Dune. I preferred a quiet season , nobody was arround at this period . I spent half a day walking round the sand dune feeling the fine , smooth sand and sat there viewing the horizon and the border of Rusia . I am sure those who like nature will love this place.
