This weird forest is located about 38km away from Curonian Spit, a national park in the Baltic Sea. Dancing forest is a unique natural phenomenon.

The reasons of such anomalous parts of tree are still unknown, but there are some suppositions such as wind impact, insects (tortrix) attacking the small pines for 5-20 years and damaging shoots and even “turbulent energy circulation”.
