Baltic National Parks

Unspoilt nature, unique forests, lakes and marshland landscapes, and habitats for dozens of endangered animal and plant species - the national parks in the Baltic States have it all.

The journey from the deep forests and large boulders of Estonia to the hot sulphur springs and vast moors of Latvia and the picturesque high dunes of Lithuania takes in some of the most beautiful intact natural spaces in the world. The documentary series explores four of the region's most important national parks. These are protected areas for nature, where flora and fauna can develop wildly and freely. Human intervention in the ecosystem is strictly regulated here. A national park is a landscape that is particularly valuable ecologically and requires the protection of the state. The focus is on the characteristics of the individual parks' flora and fauna and illustrates the species richness, but also the fragility of the various ecosystems.
