Around Rusliai
Interesting places to visit
The homestead also works well as a quiet base for short day trips in the Pakruojis region.
A stay in Rusliai can be more than quiet time in nature: the surrounding towns, museums and historical landmarks are all easy to reach from the homestead.
It works especially well if you want to combine a slower stay with a few short drives through the Pakruojis region.
