Weekend in Dzukija National Park

At the end of June from 21th till 24th I was in Dzukija National Park in Marcinkonys exactly. This Park is situated on the South of Lithuania.
I was there with some other volunteers. Generally there were 11 EVS volunteers from different regions of Lithuania. We spent very interesting weekend all together.
We slept in a tents and cooked on a open fire.
First day we made a cycling trip around Park. We saw beautiful Park's nature. There are so many lakes! That place very popular among lockals and tourists. They come to the Park fo rest, fishing, gether berries and moshrooms on a wild nature.
At the evening we cooked potatoes with different vegetables. That meal was very delicios cause everybody was very tired after interesting and eventful day.
Next day we stayed in our tent's camp. We swam in the lake and got sunbathing. At the evening that day we played one interesting game. We devided in 3 groups and explaned and guessed different words. It was funny.
At the third and last day in Dzukija we made a canoeing on Ula river. It was great and it's true. We spent about 6 hours on a open water! Our way wasn't so easy cause there were many old trees and branches. And it was like a barriers on our way. But we were able to do it. We went through all barriers till an end point. We did good and hard job!
So that weekend was wery interesting. I could say for that guys let's do it again. To tell the truth everything was amazing and fantastic. Everyone left in Dzukija a part of themselves. I believe I'll back one day to the Park again!!!
