About

Anykščiai Regional Park was established in 1992 to protect the natural and cultural heritage of the Šventoji valley, the Anykščiai pine grove and the Rubikiai lakes. It is rich in hillforts, outcrops, legendary stones and nature trails.

Many of the places in this guide lie within the park: Puntukas, the Treetop Walking Path, the Vetygala Outcrop and the Bijeikiai tower. It is a great area for both cycling and hiking.

Tip: Route maps and advice are available at the regional park visitor centre.
