Family day! Sometimes you just need fresh pine forest air and a bit of fun with your family. And it’s twice as much fun when you spend that time at a resort! You’ll know you are in a resort not only by the pine forests that support the sky or secluded ponds, but also by the inscriptions hanging on the facades of the houses: Kurorto g. (in English: Resort st.).

City in nature, nature in the city! The river Nemunas will take you to the Upside-down House, you will playfully turn your everyday life upside down, and the nearby divine towers of the Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary of the Scapular will not let you return to reality. After visiting the only Catholic sanctuary in the city, you can vow eternal love at the curved birch tree beloved by newlyweds, from where you will have a breathtaking view of the city’s business card – the Druskonis and the Vijūnėlė pond.

For romantic discoveries! Quietly flowing rivers, lakes lying in the distance, the sun smiling playfully through the branches of the trees – this is a route that not only clears the mind, but also fills the eyes with beauty. The Virgin Eyes looking down from the ground will be generous with photogenic views, but the hearts of romantics will be conquered by the panorama that unfolds from the outcrop to the legendary Island of Love.

After Nemunas! It will be hard to get lost when Nemunas, surrounded by forests, is constantly in sight. As a local, he will accompany the guests of the city to the most beautiful objects of Druskininkai. After showing you the Island of Love, located in the middle of the two shores, he will unexpectedly lead you to a stone that was once considered sacred, but now bears the name of the devil. Taking the baton, the paths of the pine forest will lead you to the Virgin Eyes lake, dizzying beauty of which is surpassed only by the babbling of the Ratnyčia River near the water mill.

With the Medical SPA „Eglės Sanatorija”: forest swimming! Did you know that you can swim not only in lakes or seas, but also in the forest? The fresh air, soothing rustle of pine trees and intoxicating fragrance will lull you and take you to many wonderful places. One of them is the street village Švendubrė. The area nestled between the forests will enchant you with the abundance of unique Dzūkian homesteads, and after counting them all, you will return to the forest. There are so many surprises here! Latežeris and Ašarelis will greet you when they suddenly appear from the branches, and Ilgis will show you the way back to Druskininkai.
