## How to spend 2 days in Kaliningrad

Day one is the centre on the Pregolya, as in the one-day itinerary. Day two is the Curonian Spit: the Dancing Forest is 70–80 km away, so the day goes on the road and the trails.

## How to get to the Curonian Spit on your own

Easiest by car: there is no charge for the car, only the 400 ₽ per person park fee for 24 hours. From May to September bus 593 runs to Morskoye.

## Rules on the spit

It is a national park and a UNESCO site: do not leave the trails or walk on the dunes, no fires, no picking mushrooms or berries, dogs on a lead.

## Tips

- The spit fee is 400 ₽ for 24 hours; leave and you pay again.
- Under-18s enter the spit free with a document.
- Leaving the trails for the dunes is fined.
- Bus 593 to Morskoye runs only May to September.
- Russia uses the rouble (₽). Bank cards issued abroad usually do not work in Russia — plan how you will pay before the trip; for the metro, buy a Troika card at the ticket office.
