The Hill of Witches (also sometimes called Jonas (John) Hill is a tree-covered slope of the old parabolic dunes. In 1979 an exposition of wooden sculptures of ancient Lithuanian mythological creatures was opened on this hill.

The exposition starts in the main street of Juodkrante and there are stairs up the hill. You can then slowly climb down the other side of this dune. At the end there is a playground for kids and a souvenir shop for the older ones.
