Huge Nemencine pumptrack, playground and skate park
This leisure and sports area in Nemencine, Vilnius is, in our opinion, the best in the city. It has a playground, a bicycle track, a skate park and a sports complex all in one place.
This pumptrack is probably the biggest in Vilnius. Motiejus simply adores this place. If we come here, it’s for a long time. The track is huge – you can easily ride here with a grown-up bicycle, not to mention the space for children with all their vehicles.
