The interpretive trail along the shores of Lake Dusia provides a remarkable opportunity to experience Lithuania's rich natural diversity. Marked with green and white stripes, the trail allows visitors to enjoy dry pine forests, century-old oaks, dense hornbeam groves, and damp black alder areas where naturally fallen trees remain undisturbed. Informational boards enhance visitors' knowledge about the unique marshland vegetation, including species like bog arum and common cranberry. It’s recommended to follow the trail clockwise, and for a more in-depth experience, the regional park offers guided educational tours. Nearby attractions, accessible by bike or car, include the Meteliai Observation Tower, the grand Širvinta Oak Trees, and the historic Prelomciškė Mound. There is also a well-maintained parking area, and visitors can choose a shorter, 2.9 km route to explore this unique natural area at a relaxed pace.
