Ūlos atodanga

Graži vieta, Alytaus apskritis

Ūlos atodanga is a 19-metre-high sandy scarp on the right bank of the Ūla river, in the Trakiškiai forest of Varėna district, part of the Ūla landscape reserve protected since 1997. It sits on the winding stretch of river between Zervynos and Mančiagirė villages, where the water has cut a narrow, canyon-like valley through wind-blown sand deposits. Several similar outcrops exist nearby, but this one is noted as the most easily accessible to visitors.
