The Vosbučiai Outcrop, located within the Krakių seniūnija area near the confluence of the Šušvė and Ginevė Rivers, is one of the most unique geological sites in the region. In 1996, this area was officially declared a botanical-zoological reserve due to its diverse flora and fauna. Rare plants such as common gladiolus, orchids, and gentians grow here, while kingfishers nest on the steep riverbanks, and otters inhabit the river. Known locally as Raudonkalniai, the Vosbučiai Outcrop reaches a height of 16 meters and offers impressive views of the winding Šušvė River valley.

views of the winding Šušvė River valley. At the crossroads of Pernarava and Pašušvys roads, turning right from Guptilčiai village and following a meadow path for approximately 400 meters, one can find this geological wonder. The outcrop features vertically layered strata, revealing the glaciomechanical history of the Ice Age. Additionally, the nearby Vosbučiai Hillfort, known as Pilaitės Hill, dating from the early 1st millennium to the early 2nd millennium, adds to the historical and cultural context of this area.
