12th centuries; and past this village, on the banks of the Ligajai lake, stands Kiemionys Mound. In two kilometres the slopes of Kiemionys open up views of the Antalieptė lagoon. Stop for a moment to admire the views. Then travel along the lakes of Ūpstas, Biržūnėlis and Nečeska for about 5 kilometres till you reach the Tiltiškės water mill which houses the Museum of Energy. It contains a collection of over 2,000 exhibits from home-made oil lamps to light bulbs small enough to go into human blood vessels! The road becomes narrow between the lakes of Šiurpis and Šiurpelis, winds through the barrows of Samauka and the Šventoji Reserve, and the Asavas lake, near which there are a couple of camping sites, and then reaches the village of Rusteikiai, which is in 10 kilometres away. Make note of the Old Believers’ Church built in the early 20th century. Cycling further to the South, in 1.2 kilometres you will reach the Rūsteikiai barrows. In two kilometres from Šventas lake, in the Šventoji river channel, you will notice the ruins of an ancient wooden bridge.
