The Būbliškės hillfort is situated on the edge of the Nemunas River valley highland. The hillfort's platform measures 19x9 meters and is oval-shaped, elongated in an east-west direction. The slopes are moderately steep, ranging from 3 to 15 meters in height. During World War II, the hillfort was used for military purposes, with trenches and a large bunker pit being dug. It is believed that the site where the settlement once stood became one of the oldest and largest estates in the Pagėgiai region – Būbliškės Manor. The hillfort dates from the 1st millennium to the 13th century. Today, the hillfort is overgrown with deciduous trees and bushes and is not adapted for visitor access.
