A nature trail near Lake Lūšiai, between the villages of Palūšė and Meironys, has been introducing visitors to the Aukštaitija National Park to the beautiful nature of this region for more than two decades. In 2021, the reconstructed trail was renamed the Meironys Nature Trail.
The main highlight of the renewed trail is the very expressive terrain of the area. The steep hills have formed a natural labyrinth of „roller coasters“, where small swamps, lakes and streams are hidden. Direction signs and three–color markings help you not to get lost in the labyrinth of hills, as the trail consists of three circular routes of different lengths. Each ring of the educational trail reveals a different natural habitat of the area. The yellow color marks the most picturesque part of the trail, 3.7 km long, where two hills overlooking Lake Lūšiai compete to see which one is higher. The green route, winding through a swampy hollow, extends the walk to 5 km. And if you also connect the blue Tarama Lake ring, the total length of the trail reaches 5.5 km.
The trail is full of information stands, some of which involve children and adults in interesting educational games. The information provided on the stands describes the uniqueness of the landscape of this area, reveals the secrets of nature tracking and tells intriguing stories about plants and animals. Therefore, it is no coincidence that the Meironai Educational Trail is also an educational space of the Nature School, where you can spend time in a meaningful way.
