Dabikine’s river is located in Southwest Latvia and Northwest Lithuania. It’s an affluent of Venta river. There is a landscape park in lower reaches of Dabikine. In Sablauskai village river is dammed up – it’s a nice place to have rest by the water.
Now Dabikine is shoal and ordinary river, in some places it even gets dry in summertime. But in the beginning of XX century river was much bigger, as rafters used to transport rafts from Latvia’s forests. In antient Prussian language “Dabikine” means “big”.
In XV century Dabikine’s river was a border between Samogitia and Livonia.
