Ignalina

Located in the west of the country you will find the ski resort of Ignalina next to Siekstis Lake. Snowfall appears in Ignalina early and the snow level remains high for a quite a period of time, sometimes for the longest when compared to other resorts. The resort hosts several winter sports competitions as a result. There are four ski runs here as well as a separate run dedicate to children and beginners. Ski equipment is available for rent and if some members of the party don’t fancy hitting the slopes, there are hotels and a sauna nearby.
