Review:
The Curonian Spit National Park is considered the gem of the Baltic Sea. The windblown 61-mile stretch of sand dunes separates Curonian and the Baltic Sea. This UNESCO World Heritage Site beautifully displays the gentle balance between marine life and agriculture. The Curonian Spit boasts the largest sand dunes in Europe at an average height of 115 feet. In the 19th century, the area underwent a reforestation where pine and green forests serve as protection to this magnificent natural formation. The park offers various outdoor activities such as swimming, hiking the dunes, and cycling the pathways. An interesting outdoor pagan sculpture garden with 80 characters is near Juodkrante.
