Lithuania\u2019s<\/a> Curonian Spit is a narrow 60-mile strip of sand running from Klaipeda, the country\u2019s only seaport, south into the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad. Formed over 5,000 years ago, the forested dunes of the spit separate the mostly freshwater Curonian Lagoon from the Baltic Sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Curonian Spit pairs its natural beauty with a peculiar history, making it a remarkable stop on any visit to the Baltic region<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Settling \u2013 and Burying \u2013 of the Spit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The spit\u2019s first inhabitants were Stone Age people who lived lightly on the land. But its later settlers \u2013 Western Balts, who spoke a Latvian language \u2013 managed to denude the fragile spit of trees by the 16th century. For 300 years the winds and waves battered the area, burying fourteen villages under the encroaching dunes. According to some historians, at this time of environmental degradation the practice of snaring and eating crows saved the population from starvation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

In 1825 a postal worker named G. D. Kuvertas began planting trees to help stabilize the dunes around Nida near the end of the spit, and since then an ongoing reforestation project has helped to protect the spit from destruction. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000, the Curonian Spit is a strange landscape of corrugated dunes; little villages; and forests of linden, elm, birch, and pine.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Extinct Sail Boats<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Valued for its culture as well as its natural beauty, the spit was home to a people who \u2013 before the Second World War decimated them \u2013 were famed for their tin weathervanes; their kur\u0117nas<\/em>, or flat-bottomed sail boats; and their krik\u0161tas<\/em>, or carved wooden grave markers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original wooden kur\u0117nas<\/em> were allowed to decay after WWII, when the laws were changed and fishing by motorboat became legal. First mentioned in the 14th and 15th centuries, kur\u0117nas<\/em> were used up until this time by the fishing fleet in the freshwater Curonian Lagoon.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Krik\u0161tas<\/em>: Historic Markers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The Ethnographic Cemetery in Nida is a repository of the unique wooden grave markers called krik\u0161tas<\/em> carved by 19th and early 20th century Curonians. First mentioned in the 16th century, the markers were carved out of one solid piece of wood and positioned near the center of the grave so that the souls of the dead could use them to pull themselves up on Judgment Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Excellent Birdwatching Opportunities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The Curonian Spit is also renowned for its birdlife.<\/strong> In Jodkrante, a small seaside village near Nida, Gray Herons have been nesting since the 17th century. Around 500 pairs of the herons coexist uneasily with a growing colony of Great Black Cormorants. The cormorants began moving in at the beginning of the 19th century and taking over the big nests of sticks that the herons build. The Prussians, who governed the Curonian Spit at that time, considered them pests and finally exterminated them. Several pairs began returning during the 1970s, and the cormorants are now about 2,000 pairs strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vente Cape, on the east side of the Curonian Lagoon, is a headland where an ornithological center has been counting and ringing birds since 1929. The cape is under a major migratory bird flyway, and over 15 million birds pass this way every autumn. <\/strong>The globally important wetlands are protected by the Ramsar Conventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
