Druskininkai in Lithuania is a spa town on the Nemunas River in southern Lithuania, close to the borders of Belarus and Poland.
The first written mention of Druskininkai dates back to 1636. The name of the town suggests that the local population collected precious minerals. In the late 18th century it was believed that minerals found in the waters of Druskininkai area produced health benefits and their usage in the medical treatment of asthma and other ailments began.
And so in the early 19th century, a professor at the University of Vilnius, analyzed the chemical composition of Druskininkai's waters and showed that they contain large amounts of Calcium, Sodium, Potassium, Iodine, Iron Magnesium, among others.
In 1837, The czar of Russia, Nicholas I, who was also at that time period, the king of Poland and the grand duke of Finland, bestowed upon Druskininkai the status of a spa, and construction of pensions and hostels started.
Druskininkai is the most highly-forested health resort in Lithuania.
Each year the municipality of Druskininkai plants hundreds of new trees around the resort town. The air of Druskininkai is clean and highly ionised, as the town is surrounded by pine forests. For the convenience of the town’s guests, Druskininkai’s pine forests enclose tens of kilometres of paths that are suitable for walking and cycling, and also as a route for Nordic walking.
The Snow Arena is one of the biggest indoor skiing slopes in Europe, with a year-round indoor slope length of 460 metres, width up to 63 metres, and a height difference of 65.65 metres. In addition there is a seasonal outdoor route of 640 metres
