WILDLIFE AND NATURE

As As the Baltic countries are amongst the greenest countries in the whole of Europe, there is plenty to see for nature lovers. Birds visit these lands from all over the world, and you can take part in a spot of birdwatching in a number of beautiful locations.
Or, if that’s not wild enough for you, you can look even further than the sky above, into space, from the ethnocosmology museum in Lithuania, the only one of its kind in the world.
Walk on the wild side when travelling to the Baltics as you track wolves by following their footprints and spot brown bears in the wilderness of the incredible Lithuanian and Latvian taiga.

 

Birdwatching in Ventės ragas

For birdwatchers, there really is no place like the incredible Ventės ragas, with its in tact wilderness and vibrant array of visiting bird life.
