Lithuania

Our Lithuania section takes you to the southernmost of the Baltic states, a country of forests, lakes and dunes that is still off the radar of many travelers. Vilnius, its baroque capital listed by UNESCO, sits a short drive from Trakai and its red-brick island castle, and from Kaunas and its interwar modernist architecture.

On the coast, the Curonian Spit and its huge sand dunes around the village of Nida are among the most beautiful landscapes of the Baltic Sea. Our articles share itineraries, driving tips and our favorite places to help you plan a trip to Lithuania and the Baltics.
