Nature objects in Lithuania

This landscape park has survived to the present day and was installed between 1850 and 1860.  On one side the territory has a boundary that is the dammed Kruoja River, and on the other side there is a fence made of fieldstones.  The English park principles at that time meant that advantage was given to a natural landscape with imitations of nature.  There are some 26 types of trees in the park, and some of them were introduced from various parts of the world a few centuries ago.

This museum was established in 2014 in partnership with the Siauliai University botanical garden. The museum is 85 m long and 40 m wide on a territory that covers 0.34 ha.

Reškutenu (Reškutėnai) ciema apkārtnē ir atjaunots neliels mitrājs, kura malā uzcelts putnu vērošanas tornis. Ja paveicas, pavasaros te var dzirdēt vai redzēt tādas retas un aizsargājamas putnu sugas kā ķikutu Gallinago media, ormanīti Porzana porzana, melnkakla dūkuri Podiceps nigricollis, griezi Crex crex u.c. Ciema ainava īpaši pievilcīga ir pieneņu un ābeļu ziedēšanas laikā. No putnu vērošanas torņa var redzēt vietas, kur akmens laikmetā dzīvojuši cilvēki. Blakus esošajā purvainajā pļavā bijis ezera līcis, kur tika būvēti ciemati līdzīgi kā Āraišu ezerpils gadījumā.

This is one of the most colourful and architecturally interesting parks in Lithuania.  It was rebuilt and expanded between 1898 and 1900 by the renowned dendrologist G.F. Kuphaldt.  The park had more than 200 types of plants, more than 100 of which are still growing.  There are various roads and pathways that offer a sense of the mightiness and beauty of the park.  A dendrological trail with markers offers information about 15 rare trees.

Lietuvas lielākais sūnu purvs, kura aizsardzības nolūkā ir izveidots Čepkeļu dabas rezervāts (Čepeklių gmatinis rezervatas). Tas izvietojies starp Dzūkijas nacionālā parka dienvidaustrumu daļu un Baltkrieviju. No Marcinkones pa smilšainu meža ceļu (~ 9 km turp - atpakaļ) ar kājām vai divriteni (arī nelielu tūrisma autobusu līdz 20 vietām) var nokļūt līdz purva malai, kur mežainās kāpās un purvā izveidota 1,5 km gara dabas taka un skatu tornis, no kura labi pārredzama purva rietumdaļa. Pirms došanās uz Čepkeļu purvu, ir jāreģistrējas Dzūkijas nacionālā parka apmeklētāju centrā (Šilagėlių gatve 11), kas meklējams aiz dzelzceļa pārbrauktuves. Te apskatāma neliela nacionālajam parkam un rezervātam veltīta ekspozīcija.

This park dates back to the mid-18th century and is to the south of Lake Stelmuže.  There are winding trails on all sides of the hillock that lead to the Christ the King Church, with linden, maple, oak, birch, fir, elm and pine trees.  At the foot of the hillock is the Laime stream, and visitors are welcome to stroll along the alley of oak trees.  The oldest and fattest oak tree in Lithuania is one of the oldest ones in Europe.  It is though that it is 1,500 to 2,000 ears old, and its record-setting diameter is 3.5 metres (eight or nine people linking hands are needed to encircle it).  The tree is 23 m high.

The Jakiškiu Estate was first mentioned in documents in the late 16th century.  The estate had elements of Classicism in terms of its architecture.  Among the buildings, the only ones that have survived are the mansion, an ice cellar and a steam-driven windmill.  The estate has not been restored, so it is still authentic.  Its artistic soul is preserved by various objects that remain from the time when people lived at the estate and from the Soviet era.  Alongside the estate are a few fragments of a park, which covers approximately 2 ha.  There is an ancient alley of linden trees that are on both sides of the entrance road, as well as several other valuable types of trees and a small pond.
