Kleboniškis Forest Sculpture Trail
Kaunas, Kaunas1-2 hoursBest: Year-round
A forest trail on the outskirts of Kaunas lined with large wooden sculptures carved by Lithuanian artists — merging nature and folk art in an accessible urban forest.
The Kleboniškis Forest, a beloved green space on the northern outskirts of Kaunas, hosts a remarkable sculpture trail featuring large wooden artworks carved by Lithuanian sculptors. These pieces — often depicting figures from Lithuanian mythology, forest spirits, and abstract natural forms — are integrated into the forest landscape along well-maintained walking trails.
The sculptures are periodically renewed through carving symposiums, where artists work on-site to create new pieces from large logs. The forest itself is a pleasant mix of pine and birch, popular with joggers, dog walkers, and families. The combination of accessible urban forest and open-air gallery makes this a unique recreational space.
Why Visit
Art and nature seamlessly merged in a city forest. The large wooden sculptures bring Lithuanian mythology to life in their natural forest setting.
