What to expect
Nemuno žiedas at Kačerginė is the heart of the Baltic track scene: a compact, quick-to-learn lap near Kaunas with a friendly paddock culture where first-timers are the norm, not the exception. If you live in the Baltics, this is where your first track day should probably happen.
What the ratings mean for your day
Difficulty 2/5 — Straightforward. The layout reads quickly — expect to know where it goes within a few sessions, leaving the whole day for refining braking points and lines.
Danger 2/5 — Forgiving. A forgiving venue by track standards — most errors end in gravel or grass, not barriers. Still a race track: the standard build-up discipline applies.
Local knowledge
- A perfect first venue: short lap, quick to learn, forgiving speeds — focus on line, not lap time.
- The paddock is small and social — arrive early, ask questions, and you'll leave with three new driving friends.

- The full standard plan — vehicle prep, packing, safety briefing and countdown timeline, trimmed to your answers.
Ratings are editorial. Difficulty scores how hard the layout is to learn; danger scores what a mistake costs. They are our honest judgement as track day drivers — not an official scale — and they exist to calibrate your preparation, not to rank bravery.
