November marks the move toward winter with colder days, frequent overcast skies and the first snows in many areas. Many outdoor attractions reduce hours and traveler activity slows significantly.

Average temperature across Lithuania in November.
Klaipėda, Palanga, Nida
November shifts to raw, damp conditions with shorter days and a persistent grey that can feel heavier than inland because of the sea. Smoked fish stalls and spa escapes in Klaipėda are attractive options when the weather is gloomy; don’t expect much beachgoing, though dramatic coastal walks remain possible with warm layers. The first snows sometimes arrive late in the month, but prolonged snow cover on the coast is uncommon.
Šiauliai, Telšiai, Mažeikiai
November shifts to a damp, cooling tone: fields look bare and daylight shortens, with frequent grey skies and drizzle. Tourist services reduce before the winter season, but off-season rates make it a quiet time for those not deterred by the weather. Pack a warm, water-resistant coat and plan shorter outings; medieval sites are atmospheric in the low light but beware slippery paths.
Kaunas, Kėdainiai, Nemunas valley
November is cool and damp with shrinking daylight and frequent grey skies; early snow can dust the landscape and riverbanks look bare and stark. It’s a low season for tourism, so museum visits and spa days in Kaunas make pleasant indoor alternatives. Pack warm clothing and waterproof footwear for day trips, and check opening times for country estates and small local museums.
Vilnius, Trakai, Anykščiai, Zarasai
November becomes chillier and damper with grey skies and the first snows possible in higher spots; forest trails are quieter and lakes look stark. Indoor cultural attractions in Vilnius are excellent alternatives, and spa towns to the south remain open as winter approaches. Pack warm, layered clothing and waterproof footwear for short, brisk excursions, and check transport if traveling to more remote lake areas.
Druskininkai, Varėna, Merkinė
November tends to be damp and increasingly chilly as the region approaches winter: fog settles in valleys and small towns quieten ahead of the holidays. Druskininkai offers indoor wellness escapes to avoid raw days outdoors; rural roads may become slippery with early frosts. Pack waterproof layers and a warm hat and plan shorter excursions into the woods rather than long hikes.
There are no major festivals or events in Lithuania during November to be aware of.
