The westernmost point of Russia. The Curonian Spit, 98 km., Which is included in UNESCO World Heritage Site.
And there assembled all.



As the result of the work of the wind and the sea, Curonian Spit is a unique combination of climatic zones and ecosystems. From taiga to the desert. You can swim in the sea, walk through coniferous forest, deciduous forest and then get into the real desert.



Curonian Spit is a narrow strip separates the salty Baltic Sea and freshwater Curonian Lagoon (the width of the spit from 400 meters at the narrowest point of up to four kilometers at its widest, that is, in some places, enough for about twenty minutes walk from the bay to the sea).

Tribe Kurshiay (Kursiai), has long inhabited the Curonian Spit, has disappeared, but its ethnographic heritage still exists. Preserved under the sand and the remains of fishing villages buried by sand dunes.

Body streamer consists of sand coated with a thin (several centimeters thick) topsoil. The formation of this layer was happening for decades.

Scientific studies have shown that Kurskaya Spit from exposure to wind and water
Baltic Sea appeared several thousand years ago.



People in these places have settled about 5 thousand. Years ago. They could watch the "growth" spit

Villages, forests and roads of the Curonian Spit shared the fate of Pompeii, only they were not buried under a layer of lava and ash, and under the mountains of sand. It is expected that during the existence of the spit her three or four times the landscape was completely covered with sand. The last act of this drama unfolded in XVII-XVIII century. Until that time, the entire Curonian Spit was covered with forests

First wastelands are created in the XVI century., With the beginning of a large deforestation. Special forest damage was caused to the Seven Years' War (1756-1763). In Klaipeda began to build ships, mainly for military purposes, for which the wood is delivered to the Curonian Spit. After the war, when the forest was destroyed, the edge looked terrible. Approaching catastrophe - the way of the sand remained obstacles. Sandstorms poured huge mountains, they are dangerously close to fishing villages. Offshore wind and sandstorms distilled residents to the bay, the longest-held villages, protected forest. At the end of the XVII century. saga began moving villages, and from the XIX century. all settlement based on the Gulf, mainly in the plain preddyunnoy.

In the beginning. XIX century. Prussian authorities undertook the salvation of the Curonian Spit, especially its southern part, from Sarkau (Forest) and Rossittena (Fishermen). The works were entrusted to the Inspector-Dane Soren Bjorn, who started with the construction of the protective shaft on the coast. For two decades, it managed to pour a 20 km dune ridge. An important role in these works played the owner of the postal station in Nida Georg David Kuwert: in 1825 he was the first in this part of the Curonian Spit was engaged in gardening. But he had a hard time, I buried under the sand is often a fragile seedlings.



Many avid fishermen specially come here in the summer and fall to go into the sea for a rich catch of cod or plaice, and in winter the famous catch smelt.



the main attraction: The Dancing Forest.



mystery of nature



There are several hypotheses why the forest is dancing:
1.Postoyanno acting strong winds.
2.Zabolevanie wood, internal or external, which is twisted tree in the growth process.
3.Energeticheskoe impact.
4.Himicheskoe impact. In favor of this hypothesis, there is information that in this place is the German Glider School, where he worked from 1922 to 1945. Perhaps during the war there were chemical warfare agents.



but this is only a hypothesis



Studies have shown that this place is has strong energy, and from trees can be charged with positive energy, and even improve your health. Wishing there was so much that there were signs asking them not wiping a tree. Bark may be affected.))
