Varniai Regional Park, Regional park in Telšiai District Municipality, Lithuania.
Varniai Regional Park is a nature reserve in the Telšiai region that connects forests, lakes, and wetlands into a single landscape. The terrain includes several distinct natural habitats that together form an interconnected ecosystem for wildlife.
The park was established in 1992 to protect its natural and archaeological value. Near Biržulis Lake lie the remains of ancient settlements from early human communities that once inhabited this region.
The mounds scattered across the park date back to the Crusader period and shape how visitors experience the terrain. Walking through the landscape, you encounter these earthen structures that once marked significant places for the people who lived here.
The park has marked trails that guide visitors through different areas and help you explore the landscape at your own pace. Some paths are designed specifically for nature observation and include information stops along the way.
Lake Lūkstas is the largest natural lake in the region and has a special quality that makes it different from other water bodies. Amber washes up on its shores, a phenomenon found nowhere else in Lithuania.
