The Minija is a river in western Lithuania and a right tributary to the Nemunas.
[1] It begins from small Lake Didovas, and hydrographically from lake Sydeklis, 14 km south of Telšiai.
It flows through Lakes Ilgis, Pluotinalis, Didovas, and Gargždai, Priekulė towns before reaching the Atmata distributary of the Nemunas delta.
In 1873 a channel, called "Vilhelmo kanalas" was built that connected Minija directly with Klaipėda port.
