English: Looking south from the top of the 50 meter high Parnidis sand dune near Nida on the Curonian Spit in Lithuania. The border with Russia goes just a couple of kilometer south of the dune, so this is as far south visitors can get on the 98 km long Curonian Spit without a Russian visa. The green cape stretching out into the Curonian lagoon is known as Grobšto ragas and belongs to Russia. The white dune seen between Grobšto ragas and the Parnidis dune is Sklandytojų kopa or Sklandytojai dune, once 70 meter tall but now about the same height as Parnidis. Sklandytojų means paraglider and was named so because the Nida paraglider school used the dune for exercises from 1933-39.
