A very nice place on the Curonian Spit. Thomas had his summer house here. Today it's a museum. In the south, the Great Dune connects.

Traditional Fishermen's Houses of Nida

Highlight • Historical Site

Around 50 of the fishermen's houses date back to the 1920s and 1930s. Now lovingly restored and still with original details, the well-kept houses and gardens along the alleys and streets are simply worth seeing.

Highlight • Beach

Once you start walking along the shore, you will have to walk a long way, as in most places there are steep banks that are forbidden to climb.

April 15, 2025,Nida - Kurische Nehrung - auf die Parnidis Düne

A beautiful hike from Nida to the Parnidis Dune. At almost 50 meters high, it is one of the largest shifting dunes in Europe. From the highest point, you can see both the Baltic Sea and the Curonian Lagoon. The climb is worth it. The panorama is magnificent. Please stay on the marked paths!

A beautiful loop over the Parnidis Dune on the border between Lithuania and the Kaliningrad Oblast. Of course, the designated paths on the dune must be observed at all times.
