Valleys, plains and mountains surround most of this Baltic country. With more than 700 rivers and streams, Lithuania is an ideal country to tour by bicycle, allowing for the easy reach of many of its forests. Discovering its more than 3000 lakes and the unique beauty of the dunes of Nerija is a true pleasure. Moreover, sailing and water sports are a major tourist attraction thanks to the great facilities on its coast. The cities favoured by travellers are Kernave and Vilnius, as they boast great baroque influence in their castles and palaces.
