This pedestrian path along the Venta River connects two important objects of Kuršėnai - one of the longest pedestrian bridges in Lithuania across the Venta (connecting the Kuršėnai Manor homestead and park with Laurynas Ivinskis Square) and the Kuršėnai Sports School, located at the very edge of Daugelais. The route can start at the bridge or at the Sports School, but the trail can enter or end its route not necessarily at the end point: several places on the trail have naturally formed exits/entrances to the city, as well as to the Pine Forest.
For some, this path is suitable for walking, there are also people who ride it on bicycles. The length of the trail is 5.2 kilometers, it is spread over an area of 18 hectares.
Next to the path there are benches for resting, as well as benches with tables for placing snacks.
There are rest areas, flower gardens, planted trees, and a barefoot path where you can try the base of various textures with your bare feet - from various cut wood to needles of various sizes, pine cones, and even several types of sand.
The trail is earthen and wooden: where the trail runs through flooded river accesses and natural swamps, the trail is elevated, with lookouts installed in places.
