The ‘Belmontas’ route

Vilnius Nature Oasis: based on a fairy tale

Įrašo pavadinimas:

This route connects one of Vilnius’ most beautiful natural oases – at first you will ride through the Vilnia Valley until you reach the refreshing Belmontas Waterfalls and see the exposed rock layers of the Pūčkoriai outcrop from below. You’ll return to the city via Pavilniai, which is brimming with rural life, and Markučiai, where you’ll not only find a hilly park but also the legacy of the famous poet Alexander Pushkin.

Suggested direction:: Katedros a.–Šventaragio slėnis (valley) – along the River Vilnia–Šv. Brunono Bonifaco g.–Maironio g.– Aukštaičių g.–S. Batoro g.–Pūčkorių takas–Tuputiškių g.–Pavilnio g.–Subačiaus g.–Didžioji g.–Pilies g.
