Curonian Spit National Park, National park on Baltic Sea coast, Lithuania

The Curonian Spit National Park extends across 274 square kilometers of land, featuring large sand dunes that separate the Baltic Sea from the Curonian Lagoon.

The national park, established in 1991, contains remnants of four villages and two cemetery sites that disappeared under moving sand dunes since 1675.

The park territory preserves traditional Lithuanian fishing settlements and maintains connections to ancient amber trading routes along the Baltic coastline.

Visitors reach the park through ferry services from mainland Lithuania, with marked trails leading through protected areas and designated observation points.

The Nagliai Nature Reserve within the park contains dead dunes, which form substantial sand hills shaped by wind patterns and natural erosion processes.
