The Zackagiris Educational Trail is one of the most popular routes in Dzūkija National Park, starting in Marcinkonys. The trail is about 14 km long, but travelers can also choose shorter sections. The route winds through pine forests, sandy areas, raised bogs, and the Grūda River valley, revealing the diversity of Dzūkija’s nature. Unique sites await here: the Kloniai (Rooster) Dune, the raised bog “Bear’s Bottom,” old beehive hollows, beaver lodges, and the Shooting Range Hill. Along the trail, visitors will find information boards, observation platforms, and rest areas, making it easy to explore the region’s heritage. It is a perfect spot both for a quiet walk and for a longer hike for those seeking the authentic beauty of Dzūkija’s forests.
