Litorina Educational Trail. Between the Dutchman's Hat and the Kukuliškiai hillfort, a natural hiking trail stretching along a terrace formed by the Litorina Sea, which lay dormant 8 thousand years ago, can be considered one of the most picturesque in Lithuania. The purpose of this extremely accessible, naturally comfortable for walking, marked trail is to provide the joy of being in nature. The educational infrastructure here is minimal, the aim is that the information aspect does not overshadow the wonderful forest, planted with the care of the Klaipėda Merchants' Guild at the beginning of the 20th century, and the abundance of sensations provided by the sea that can be constantly seen and felt through the branches of the trees. On the trail there are installed information stands to provide information about the Litorina Sea, the songbirds heard here, and tree species. The trail includes the picturesque Bronze Age Kukuliškiai hillfort, from which the World War II fortifications "Memel-Nord" are easily accessible.
