Žibininkai: Climbing, Water and History
Accommodation in Žibininkai
Žibininkai combines climbing and high-altitude activities, water activities, a sauna and spa with a historic memorial site. The different themes each have their own focus: sometimes it is all about activity, sometimes water and relaxation, and sometimes the history of a former bunker. This gives you a practical choice of options to suit different interests when planning your trip.
Climbing and active recreation
MIŠKAS PARK has five treetop climbing courses, located between 1 and 15 metres above the ground. The park also offers a 20-metre free-fall experience. This means the treetop courses and free fall are two different high-altitude activities: the courses involve several climbing routes, while the free-fall experience is a format of its own. When choosing, consider whether you would prefer several courses or a single free-fall activity.
BOOM Park offers active recreational activities with a different focus: a 230-metre zipline ride, obstacle courses and a 15-metre-high artificial hill that you can ride down on an inflatable tube. There are also playgrounds for children. The measurements refer to different things: 230 metres is the length of the zipline ride, while 15 metres is the height of the hill. Check the current offerings at both parks directly before planning a visit. If you are planning leisure activities with children, you can also consider the playgrounds as a separate option alongside the zipline, obstacle courses and tube ride. This makes it easier to choose activities based on different interests, rather than treating all the park’s offerings as the same kind of activity.
Water activities and relaxation
The water activities also come in different forms. BOOM Park has a 3,000-square-metre water trampoline area. The “Atostogų parkas” recreation and health complex offers water activities, sauna programmes and spa treatments. It has 16 swimming pools and an amber sauna; confirm directly which facilities are currently available before visiting. A water trampoline area offers a different focus from pools, a sauna and a spa: when choosing, consider whether you prefer active water activities or a range of pools and wellness options.
Historic sites in Žibininkai
In the forest of Žibininkai, on Vilimas Hill, the former bunker of the Narimantas Company of the “Kardas” partisan unit was restored, and a monument was erected nearby. The restored bunker was formally opened on 18 September 2009. Alongside the recreational activities, this offers a site with a specific historical connection. The “Sveikatos ir šposų takas” trail is located on the grounds of the HBH entertainment complex.
Choosing where to visit thus becomes a practical question of your own travel interests.
