===Delta=== {{main|Nemunas Delta}} At its [[river delta|delta]] Nemunas splits into a maze of river branches and canals mixing with [[polder]]s and [[wetlands]] and is a very attractive destination for [[eco-tourism]]. The four main [[distributary|distributaries]] are Atmata, Pakalnė, Skirvytė (the southern mouth, marking the international border) and Gilija. The river plays a crucial part in the ecosystem of the [[Curonian Lagoon]]. It provides the main water inflow to the lagoon and keeps the water almost fresh. This allows fresh water and [[brackish water]] animals to survive there. As the delta extends north the lagoon opposite narrows. Since the delta is in Lithuania, it is often referred to as ''Nemunas Delta''. [[Nemunas Delta Regional Park]] was created in the delta in 1992.
