Yachting :-)

I saw a few yachts sailing on lakes in Trakai and even more "parked" along shores of Galve Lake. Do you want to hire one? Follow the link below for more. Or go to look at them on the banl of Galve Lake, maybe 200 m north of the wooden bridge to the castle island.

Theme: Boating/Sailing

With a bow or crossbow

This shooting range with two shooting targets, on my picture, was located in the Trakai castle. Turn right just before entering a yard of the Palace through a drawbridge. Each shot both with a bow and with a crossbow costed 1.00 Lt. Well, shooting with a crossbow seemed to be more difficult.

Equipment: A few kinds of bows and crossbows to choose.

Bows and crossbows

Have you ever used a bow or a crossbow? Well, you can choose and try it in the Trakai castle - turn right just before entering a yard of the Palace through a drawbridge. Hmm... it was not so simple :-) but with some help of a local instructor...

Equipment: A few kinds of bows and crossbows to choose - look at my picture.

Shooting range

When I left a yard of the Palace (main residential part of the Trakai insular castle), I turned left to walk around and found this small shooting range on my picture.

The price-list was in 4 languages: Lithuanian, Polish, Russian and English (with mistakes :-). Five shots with an airgun (no prizes, just fun) costed 1 Lt. Alternatively one could shoot with a slingshot and win small prizes but it costed 5 Lt per 10 shots.

Equipment: Airguns and slingshots to choose.
