Hiking

Prelomciškii Hill is one of the largest and most impressive hills in the Metelii Regional Park. It was built, like the other hills in the park, by the Jotvingi, a Baltic tribe close to the Lithuanians. Archaeological research has confirmed that there was a fairly large Jotvingian settlement at the foot of the hill, and a well-fortified wooden castle stood on the hill. The hill served people from the 1st millennium to the 13th century. It offers a spectacular view of the vast Dzūkija Sea – Dusia.
