    The Lontzkedüne (Polish Wydma Łącka) is the largest shifting dune on the Pomeranian Baltic Sea coast. Shaped like a crescent or crescent, it is part of the dune area, which covers an area of approximately 500 hectares. The natural dune is located on the 17 km long spit between Lake Leba and the Baltic Sea. It is between 30 and 42 meters high, about 1300 meters long and 500 meters wide and moves eastwards about 12 meters a year due to the prevailing westerly winds. She buries the original landscape, forest and moor under her. In the past, Łączka was also buried by the dune. On the west side, facing the wind, the dune has a gentle slope, while on the leeward side, the slope is very steep. From a wind speed of 18 km/h, the grains of sand begin to roll up the flat side until they fall down the upper edge on the wind-protected side. While the dune grows higher in spring and summer when the winds are rather weak, it flattens out in stronger winds in autumn and winter and then achieves a higher migration speed. On the back of the shifting dune, stub fields of former forests come to light (Wikipedia).
