Traveller notes on Kaunas in April
Notes from nearby Vilnius (91 km away)
Kaunas doesn't have its own notes for April yet — these are about Vilnius, close enough to share the season.
Vilnius's forum calls April genuinely unpredictable — real spring can bring 20°C days, but some years still see snow, and a 16°C afternoon can be followed by a 4°C, rainy one the next day. Regulars' consistent advice is to check the forecast close to the trip rather than trust the calendar, and to pack for both a warm day and a cold, wet one.
