The Hill Of Witches (Raganų Kalnas), Juodkrantė, Neringa, Lihuania - Unravel Travel TV
The Hill of Witches (Raganų Kalnas) is an outdoor sculpture gallery near Juodkrantė, Lithuania. It is located on a forested sand dune about 0.5 kilometer west of the Curonian Lagoon, on the Lithuanian Seaside Cycle Route. Begun in 1979, it has been expanded several times, and now contains about 80 wooden sculptures along a series of trails. The artists drew on a long tradition of woodcarving in Samogitia, and on the equally long tradition of Midsummer Night's Eve (Joninės) celebrations on the hill. The pieces depict characters from Lithuanian folklore and pagan traditions. Woodcarving symposia are held at the park on a regular basis, and new works are added. Admission is free.

Nida, Lithuania
( English Version) wonderful trip to Lithuania , Nida and Hill of Witches
Nida is a tranquil fishing village and the biggest settlement on the beautiful Curonian Spit on the Lithuanian coast. This peacefully breezy and soul soothing resort is a popular destination amongst the local nature lovers and international visitors alike looking for some downtime.Due to its historic ties with Germany, Nida is an attractive place for German visitors.
The spectacular strip of land also known as Neringa is a national treasure with drifting white sand dunes, deep blue waters, evergreen forests and distinctive architecture.Nida is a one of a kind tranquil oasis surrounded by nature. It’s a place for those who love to stay outdoors, go on hikes, bike, kayak or sail away to the open waters of the Baltic Sea.To reach the tallest moving sand dune in Europe head south of the town and climb the 180 steps to reach the top but don’t stray away from the footpath.The viewing platform opens up into the never-ending nature reserve of the ‘Dead Dunes’. Feast your eyes on the lagoon from one side and the Baltic Coast on the other, separated by the beautiful pine tree forest.Even if you are not a romantic, I highly recommend coming here for both the sunrise and the sunset. This is the only place in Lithuania where the sun rises from the water and then sinks back down into the water.
The Hill of Witches is a unique museum of wooden sculptures, where devils, witches and other characters of folklore reign supreme, revealing to visitors the natural and mystical spirit of the place.Most of the sculptures of the Hill of Witches are placed around the scenic Fir Valley Since the late 19th century, this valley, which is a natural amphitheatre of the forest formed by parabolic dunes, and the Hill of Eve used to attract crowds of Lithuanians from the other side of the lagoon on Midsummer Day to pray in the mystical atmosphere and visit the popular resort of Juodkrantė. This tradition was particularly popular before the First World War, but also continued in the interwar period.Assembled from all over Lithuania in 1979, the authors of sculptures of the Hill of Witches, wood carvers and blacksmiths, were inspired by the beauty of the landscape and mystical atmosphere of the parabolic dune slopes overgrown with centenary pine and fir trees that gave an impetus to embody the characters of fairy tales and legends in wood.Today, the exposition of wooden sculptures on the Hill of Witches in Juodkrantė is among the most visited tourist attractions in Neringa.

Amber, Real or Fake - Rasa Puronaitė, Amber Gallery-Museum, Nida, Lithuania - Unravel Travel TV
Rasa Puronaitė from the Amber Gallery-Museum in Nida, Neringa, Lithuania explains how to check if Amber is Real or Fake.
Amber Gallery-Museum in Nida is located in an old fisherman's house. The museum tells the story of the history of the Baltic Amber: formation, morphology, colours, and inclusions. Amber of different sizes and shapes. The biggest amber piece weighs 3,820 kilograms. Visitors may touch it and be filled with 50 million years amber energy and feel its warmth. There is also one amber nugget with a particularly strong energy. It is of an ox heart shape and diffuses exclusively intense energy from the sharp edge. The nugget was even used to heal the gallery owner. The museum shows an impressive collection of inclusions. Here you can find various insects and plants in amber. We also have an amber piece with a bird feather and a spider Sosybius Mizgirisi. The latter piece of amber received this name when the researcher J. Wunderlich, who works at the Hamburg University of Geology-Paleontology Museum. Visitors can taste a special drink – Amber Drink and learn how to make the drink at home themselves.
In addition to the antique amber, prominent-Lithuanian artists works are displayed. You can buy jewelry and art works of amber. All items have certificates, guaranteeing that the product is made of natural Baltic amber.
Museum visitors can also visit exposition in the garden and walk along the irst part of the Amber Road which extends from the Baltic Sea to the Etruscan lands in Italy.
At the Amber Gallery-Museum you can learn to work with amber (who wants can try to become an amber master and make themselves a fortune amulet). Visitors can see a collection of inclusions, amulets from Juodkrantė Treasure, and then open a 50 million year-old pine bole to understand how amber was formed inside. They can see how resin was piling up in the tree; dripping from damaged spots or dribbling down the tree bark. A boat previously used to fish amber and some ancient tools are part of the exhibition. The beginning of the Amber Road is marked with an obelisk placed in Curonian Lagoon.
In summer time artists come to the Artists‘ House, which is located near the Amber Gallery-Museum. These is a chance to observe the creative processes and visit the exhibitions.

Lithuania travel guide video - Check out what this baltic country has to offer.
Aiste's home country, and surely a country that everyone should visit. We made this short film to show you what to expect of this baltic state. From skiing, to paragliding, from beach to forest, Lithuania has it all. A special note to the very welcoming people over there, and a big thank you to all our friends.
Some of the locations include Birstonas, Vilnius, Klaipeda, Nida, Druskininkai and many more.
Lithuania is the southernmost of the three Baltic States – and the largest and most populous of them. The country is predominantly flat, with a few low hills in the western uplands and eastern highlands. Forests cover just over 30 % of the country.
Capital: Vilnius
Geographical size: 65 286 km2
Population: 2 921 262 (2015)
A land of wood and water, proud, independent Lithuania (Lietuva) is fast being recognised as one of Europe's gems. Southernmost of the Baltic states, it's a pocket-sized republic that's a nature-lover's delight, yet lacks nothing in urban excitement.
Lithuania's foremost attraction is its stunning Baltic coastline, especially the unique sliver of white sand known as Curonian Spit. Lonely coastal wetlands lure migrating birds by the tens of thousands while inland, lush forests watch over burnished lakes.
The capital, Vilnius, is a beguiling artists’ enclave, its timeworn courtyards, cobbled streets and baroque churches animated by the vibrant, optimistic culture of today.
Further afield, remnants of Soviet times – a disused nuclear missile site (now a museum to the Cold War) and a Soviet sculpture park – are reminders of a dark recent past, while the Hill of Crosses and Orvydas stone garden stand testament to the land's enduring faith.

It is located on a forested sand dune about 0.5 kilometer west of the Curonian Lagoon, on the Lithuanian Seaside Cycle Route. Begun in 1979, it has been expanded several times, and now contains about 80 wooden sculptures along a series of trails.

Solar Clock, Kuršių Nerija National Park, Lithuania - Unravel Travel TV
The view point on the top of Parnidis Dune is one of the most popular sights in vicinity of Nida. A solar clock was built on the site in 1995 by architect R. Kristapavicius, sculptor K. Pudymas and astronomer R.Klimka. This place was chosen as The Curonian Spit is the only place in Lithuania where sun rises and sets in the water. The original clock finger was 12 m in height (2 m under the ground) and weighted 200 tons. On the 4th December 1999 hurricane Anatoly that devastated the Curonian Spit broke the marble slab but it was later repaired. On bottom half left, one can see signs and symbols of calendar celebrations, which were copied from the ancient wooden runes calendar.
Parnidis Landscape Reserve covers an area of 230 ha consisting of Parnidis Horn, the coastal and the lagoonal sand plains and the remnants area. The reserve is a buffering zone for the Grobstas Strict Nature Reserve from the Nida settlement. It features landscapes of great aesthetic value. Especially exposed is the dune ridge, which is covered with mountain pine on the northern end and moving sand in the south. This is the only place in the national park where drifting dunes remain. Drifting dunes are very sensitive to any disturbance brought by visitors. According to the scientific estimations, each person climbing or sliding down the steep slope pushes down several tons of sand. Due to humans and the wind, the most beautiful dunes in the spit every year get lower and lower. Staff of the national park keeps trying to preserve sand dunes. They mark out separate areas on the Parnidis Dune slope, where visitors aren't allowed to go.
At the foot of Parnidis Dune on the northern side lies the Valley of Silence. It is a peaceful place surrounded by dunes. On the southern part of the reserve lies the Valley of the Death. In 1870-1872 there was a camp for war prisoners. French solders captured by Germans lived there. Mostly they served to plant forests on dunes. Living conditions in the camp were very poor and many prisoners died.
Parnidis Landscape Reserve, also includes the site of a former Airclub Gliding School. It was established in 1933 and closed in 1939, when Germany occupied Klaipeda region. Between 1939 and 1943 it had been used as a school by WWII German military airforce. Nowadays only foundations are left there. A forest grows in the place which the airport once stood. The symbolic hangar arch and memorial stone built in 1979 remind visitors of the former gliding school.
The following rare species can be found in the Parnidis Landscape Reserve: Seaside Centaury (Centaurium littorale), Sea-holly (Eryngium maritimum) and Dark-red Heleborine (Epipactis atrorubens Bessertas). These rare plants, also the tawny pipit (Anthus campestris), which nests here. This is an area of fragile nature. The southern end of the peninsula forms part of the Lithuanian border with Kaliningrad region of Russia.

Neringa Spit on The Curonian Gulf and Witches Hill, Lithuania
A ferry ride over to Neringa Spit formed over 3,000 years ago from a series of small islands. The bus dropped us off at the beginning of a trail heading through century-old pines. Craftsmen began to carve personalities from legends years ago and there are now more than 80 oak sculptures of devils, witches, pagan gods and goddesses.
My favorite young witch forgot the spell to make rain and instead, the sky poured frogs. Fun, fun, fun...
