Carmana ezers

Dabas parks, kura lielāko daļu aizņem neprastās formas un līčiem bagātais Cārmaņa (arī Cārmins) ezers. Ezera ūdens ir ļoti tīrs, tādēļ tajā sastopamas Latvijai retas augu sabiedrības. Tā kā parka teritorijā nav tūristiem veidota infrastruktūra, interesenti var baudīt skatus, kas paveras uz ezera un tā apkārtni no Aulejas – Grāveru ceļa.

Nida - Perkone

The “Nida-Pērkone” protected marine territory is one of the most biologically diverse marine territories along the shore of the open part of the Baltic Sea, and it is enormously important for environmental protection. The most important reef territories are found here. During migration season, most species of migrating birds that are found in Latvia cross the area. The territory is particularly important to protect the goosander and the little gull. The territory is opposite the Rucava and Nīca administrative districts and covers 36,703 hectares. It overlaps the marine section of the Pape Nature Park and the Bernāti Nature Park.

Paradize (Gleznotaji) Hill

This is a lovely place in Sigulda which has been painted (as the word "gleznotāji", which means "painters" suggests) and photographed for centuries. This is basically not a hill at all, it's just the place where the shore of the ancient Gauja River valley is split by the mighty Vējupīte ravine. You will have an excellent view of the Turaida Castle and the river valley. There are leisure facilities and a viewing platform there. You can ride to Paradīze hill via an electric car.

The Lake Engure Nature Park

The key treasure in this park is that it has a lake that is one of the most intensive sites for birdwatchers in all of Latvia. It also features outstanding flora and the shallow waters of the Bay of Rīga. Recommended: Hike along the seashore from Mērsrags to Engure (20 km). See wild domestic animals (horses and cows) on the eastern shore of Lake Engure. There’s a bird-watching tower on the NW shore of the lake (approach from Kūļciems, where you can see domestic animals adapted to life in the wild, including the Blue Cows of Latvia). A bird-watching tower can be found at a place called Jomiņa near Mērsrags, where the seashore meadow is an uncommon biotope

Slitere National Park

The Slītere National Park (established in 2000) is known, with good reason, as an open-air museum which shows the historical development of the Baltic Sea. Nowadays evidence of geological events is seen in the Blue Hills of Slītere, which stand 20 to 30 metres high above what was the shore of the Baltic lake of ice 10,000 years ago. The Stiebri hills were former 8,000 or 9,000 years ago, while the Littorina Sea formed Europe’s largest set of dune ramparts and damp hollows between those ramparts. This occurred between 4,000 and 7,000 years ago. The gentle climate of Northern Kurzeme is the reason why so many rare plants are found in the park – some 860 in all including Common Yew (Taxus baccata) and Baltic Ivy (Hedera helix var. baltica). Of certain value in the preservation of these treasures was the Soviet military machine, which has left behind army bases and other military objects in the area. The presence of the military meant that the area of what is now the Slītere National Park remained largely undisturbed for 50 years. The park includes one of the most popular tourist destinations in Latvia – the Cape of Kolka, which is visited by more than 50,000 travellers each year. During the spring migration of birds, more than 60,000 birds cross the cape each hour. Along the shore of the Baltic Sea is the so-called Livonian coast, which stretches from Kolka to Sīkrags and Ovīši. Fishing villages and other cultural objects established by the world’s smallest ethnic minority, the Livonians, can be found here. Tourists will enjoy interesting four nature trails, bicycling routes, viewing tower, etc. The visitors centre is located at the Slītere lighthouse. Administration of National park is organising environmental education events on regular basis open to everyone.

Embute

This lovely territory includes the hillocks of Embūte, which are in the ancient Embūte valley. The aim of establishing the park was to protect the landscape, biotopes and species of the region. An ecological tourism trail has been established in the valley, as has a forest trail through the nature park (accessibly only in the company of a guide). Visitors will learn about the hillocks and ravines left behind by the Ice Age. The ravines and the forests along their sides are protected biotopes. There are also important natural and cultural monuments, including the Embūte castle hill and the ruins of a baronial estate, castle and church. Other points of interest include the death place of the Courlandian warrior Indulis, the Joda dam, meadows, a viewing tower, etc. Three unmarked bicycle trails are in the area.

Moricsalas dabas rezervats

This is Latvia’s oldest nature reserve and, indeed, the country’s oldest protected natural territory. Moricsala is an island in Lake Usma, which is the fifth largest lake in Latvia. The reserve was established in 1912 at the initiative of a group of nature students from Rīga. They wished to protect the deciduous forest of oak trees on the island, along with the local flora and fauna. The nature reserve also includes the Lielalksnīte island. Visits to the reserve, however, are strictly prohibited.

Vecdaugava

This is a large set of coastal meadows, ancient rivers and areas of reeds. It is found at a location where the Daugava River used to flow – between Vecmīlgrāvis and Vecāķi. There are inland dune meadows here, complete with the very rare silver grass. Vecdaugava is an important location for nesting birds and several uncommon plant species. On the southern end of the Vecdaugava peninsula, at a place called Skanstnieki, one can find remnants of medieval Swedish fortifications. The Vecdaugava Regional Research and Fishing Museum is here, as well.

Razna National Park

Latvia’s newest national park (2007) is in the “land of the blue lakes” – the region of Latgale. One of the goals of establishing a national park was to preserve the natural treasures of the region. Lake Rāzna, which is the second largest in Latvia, is there, as is Lake Ežezers, which has more island than any other lake in Latvia. There are other bodies of water, as well as typical landscapes of hillocks and a unique cultural environment. One of the most popular destinations in the park is Mākoņkalns Hill, which offers a lovely view of Lake Rāzna. Administrators of the newly established park are working on the tourist infrastructure – trails, routes, etc. Perhaps visitors would be advised to postpone their trip to the Rāzna National Park for awhile.

Ziemeļvidzemes biosfēras rezervāts

Latvijas lielākajā īpaši aizsargājamā dabas teritorijā (ap 6 % no valsts teritorijas), kas aptver daļu no Limbažu, Valmieras un Valkas rajoniem, sastopams ļoti daudzveidīgs un atšķirīgs ainavu, biotopu un sugu kopums. Salaca (ietilpst Salacas ielejas dabas parkā) ir viena no Baltijas jūras reģiona nozīmīgākajām lašu nārstu vietām. Upes ielejas ainava ar smilšakmens atsegumiem piesaista daudzus apmeklētājus – ne velti tā ir otra populārākā Vidzemes ūdenstūristu upe. Rīgas jūras līča austrumu piekraste salīdzinoši īsā krasta posmā izceļas ar lielu ainavu un biotopu atšķirību. Tās ziemeļos plešas piejūras Randu pļavas, vidusdaļā – smilšaini liedagi, bet dienviddaļā – akmeņaina krastmala divu desmitu kilometru garumā. Igaunijas pierobežā ir izvietojušies t.s. Ziemeļu purvi (ZBR dabas lieguma zona, NATURA 2000 teritorija "Ziemeļu purvi"), bet Sedas tīrelis ir viena no nozīmīgākajām putnu atpūtas un barošanās vietām migrāciju laikā. Rezervāta teritorija izceļas ar lielu mežu daudzveidību un tajā sastopami visi Latvijā esošie mežu tipi. Apmeklētājiem izveidotas interesantas dabas takas ar skatu torņiem vai platformām Randu pļavās, Burtnieka ezera krastā, Planču purvā, Niedrāju - Pilkas purvā, Dziļezera un Lielezera krastos u.c. Mazsalacas Skaņākalna parks ir viens no populārākajiem Ziemeļvidzemes tūrisma objektiem. Teritorijā atrodas arī daudzi nozīmīgi kultūras pieminekļi, t.sk. viena no pirmajām Latvijas apdzīvotām vietām, kur šodien atrodas t.s. Zvejnieku kapulauks (5. – 2. g.t. pr. Kr.). ZBR atrodas vēl divas dabas lieguma zonas - NATURA 2000 teritorijas "Vidusburtnieks" un "Augstroze".

Irbe pēdējo gadu laikā ir kļuvusi par samērā populāru ūdenstūrisma galamērķi, taču tās krastos, diemžēl vēl aizvien ir nepietiekama ar tūrismu saistītā infrastruktūra. Tā kā liegumu caurauž blīvs meža ceļu tīkls, tā ir potenciāla vieta dažādām dabas un izziņas tūrisma aktivitātēm.

Ādaži

Baltijas mērogā unikāls dabas un cilvēkizmantots apvidus, kas veidojies kādreiz - padomju, mūsdienās - Latvijas Nacionālo bruņoto spēku pārvaldītā armijas poligona teritorijā. Poligona lielāko daļu aizņem smilšains vai ar zemiem lakstaugiem un krūmāju apaudzis kāpu masīvs ar atsevišķiem lielākiem kāpu vaļņiem. Rudens laikā šeit lielās platībās zied virši. Unikālā virsāju un aprimušo kāpu ainava un daudzu sugu dzīves vieta bija daži no iemesliem, kādēļ šai militārai teritorijai ir piešķirts arī aizsargājamas dabas teritorijas statuss. Jāatgādina, ka poligona apmeklējumi privātpersonām bez iepriekšēja saskaņojuma ir aizliegti!

Dabas resursu, dabas, ainavas, bioloģiskās daudzveidības un kultūras pieminekļu ziņā – viens no bagātākajiem un ainaviski neparastākajiem Latvijas dabas parkiem, kura galvenā „vērtība” ir mazskartā Daugavas vidusteces ieleja ar astoņiem lieliem lokiem (garums 4 – 8 km) un tās pieteku gravām. Izcilas ainavas paveras no Daugavas ielejas stāvajiem krastiem, īpaši Slutišku un Ververu kraujām un Elernes grants kalna, kā arī citām vietām. Ielejas krastos atrodas divi desmiti dažādu arheoloģijas pieminekļu, senie senču pilskalni - Naujenes, Markovas, Vecračinas u.c., neskaitāmi dievnami - Juzefovas, Spruktu, Borovkas, Elernes, Sīķeles, Kaplavas u.c., muižas (Rozališku, Lielbornes u.c.), kā arī unikālā vecticībnieku apdzīvotā Slutišku sādža, kurā apmeklētājiem izveidota muzeja ekspozīcija. Parka teritorijā atrodas arī interesantas dabas takas, velomaršruti, var veikt pārgājienus ar zirgiem.

Latvijai neparastais meža tips – grīnis (ir divi grīņu tipi – viršu un zāļu grīnis), kas radies ilgstošā dabas un cilvēka mijiedarbības rezultātā, sastopams tikai dažviet Latvijas Baltijas jūras piekrastē un šeit augošā retā augu suga – grīņu sārtene (u.c. retas sugas) bija galvenie iemesli, kādēļ 1936. g. tika izveidots Grīņu dabas rezervāts. Rezervātu ziemeļu – dienvidu virzienā šķērso bijušā Ventspils – Liepājas dzelzceļa līnija. Rezervāta apmeklējums ir aizliegts!

Dvietes senleja

 Unikāla dabas un kultūrvēsturiska teritorija starp Kaldabruņu – Bebreni un Dvieti. Senlejai cauri tek mazā Dvietes upīte, kas plūst cauri Skuķu un Dvietes ezeriem un senlejai pieguļošajām palieņu pļavām. Tās plūdu laikā darbojas kā sava veida Daugavas ūdeņu „uzkrājējs”, ātri uzņemot lielas palu ūdeņu masas, bet vēlāk tās lēnām atdod. Ūdeņainos pavasaros šeit redzamie skati nelīdzinās nekur Latvijā citur redzamajiem. Senlejas ūdens līmeņa svārstību īpatnības ir iemesls, kādēļ šī ir nozīmīga augu un putnu dzīves vieta gan migrāciju, gan ligzdošanas laikā. Teritorijas aizsardzības nolūkā ir izveidots Dvietes palienes dabas parks. Interesanti, ka augstākās vietas, kas palu laikā neapplūst, sauc par salām. Dvietes senlejā ir atrastas 15 iespējamās seno cilvēku (akmens, bronzas, dzelzs laikmeta) apmetnes un ļoti bagātīgs dažādu seno priekšmetu - savrupatradumu klāsts. Ir pamats uzskatīt, ka šī ir viena no senākajām un nozīmīgākajām cilvēka dzīves vietām tagadējā Latvijas dienviddaļā.

Unikāla dabas teritorija – Dvietes senleja ar Skuķu un Dvietes ezeriem un senlejai pieguļošajām palieņu pļavām, kas plūdu laikā darbojas kā sava veida Daugavas ūdeņu „uzkrājējs” jeb ventilis. Tā ātri uzņem lielas palu ūdeņu masas, bet vēlāk tās lēnām atdod. Senlejas ūdens līmeņa svārstību īpatnības ir iemesls savdabīgajai senlejas ekosistēmai, kas ir nozīmīga augu un putnu dzīves vieta gan migrāciju, gan ligzdošanas laikā.

Parabaine

Salīdzinoši liela un cilvēka mazskarta teritorija ziemeļos no Lubāna ezera, kas izceļas ar lielu purvu un mitro mežu, kā arī tajā dzīvojošo organismu daudzveidību. Cauri teritorijas austrumu daļai tek Aiviekste. Dabas liegums ir grūti pieejams, tajā nav izveidota ar tūrismu saistīta infrastruktūra, tādēl vislabākais veids ir to aplūkot no Lubānas - Gaigalavas ceļa, kā arī putnu vērošanas torņa pie Gomeļa ezera (Gūmelis), kurš gan 2007. g. rudenī bija cietis no apmeklētāju vandālisma. Teritorija ietilpst Lubāna mitrāja kompleksā.

The Amata River valley

The Amata is one of Latvia's swiftest river, and water tourists congregate there each spring to engage in extreme activities. From the Rīga-Veclaicene highway, the Amata flows into a deep valley, with an average drop of more than 3 m/km or, downriver, as much as 8-10 m/km. Water tourists usually use the segment of the river between Melturi and the Zvārte cliff or the Veclauči bridge that spans the Līgatne-Kārļi road. Please remember that the Amata is not a friendly river for beginners. After lengthy rainfall, the river can be navigable during other times of the year, as well. The surrounding valley is attractive because of impressive sandstone and dolomite cliffs, among which the best known are the Vizuļi cliff (which can be the site of beautiful frozen waterfalls in winter), the Ainavu cliff, the Ķaubju cliff, the Dzilna cliff, the Zvārte cliff, and the Lustūzis cliff. Between Melturi and Veclauči, there is the Amata geological trail, which is marked with orange paint on tree trunks. There are three segments to the trail – from Melturi to the Kārļi fish farm, from the fish farm to the Zvārte cliff (both segments can be extreme!), and from the Zvārte cliff to the Veclauči bridge. You can hike the trail at any time except when there is deep snow. The most impressive views will be found when the trees are bare. If you boat down the river, you will not have time to look at or photograph the cliffs, because all of your attention will be focused on the river itself and the obstacles therein.

Gauja National Park

The Gauja National Park, established in 1973, was Latvia’s first national park, and it has a wealth of tradition in environmental protection and tourism. Indeed, the GNP is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Latvia. The main “artery” of the park is the ancient Gauja River valley, which was left behind when Ice Age glaciers receded. The valley is 95 kilometres long, with many tributaries that are also in deep ravines with massive sandstone cliffs from the Devonian period. The deepest part of the river valley is at Sigulda, where it is 85 metres deep.

The territory has a great diversity of species – some 900 plant species in all. The Gauja is Latvia’s most popular river for water tourism, and many tourist accommodations are found along its shores. The Gauja National Park is one of the best-appointed protected territories in Latvia in terms of nature trails and tourism routes. Nature trails at Līgatne pass along paddocks of wild animals – the largest and most complete object of its kind in the Baltic States. The park also features cultural monuments of pan-Baltic importance – the Turaida Museum Reserve, the medieval old town of the city of Cēsis with its famous castle ruins and St John’s Church, the lake castle at Āraiši, etc. Visitors centres are found in Sigulda, along the Līgatne nature trails, and at the Zvārte rock. The administration of the GNP is building a new and modern visitors centre in Sigulda.

Pape

This is a shallow lagoon-type lake which, along with the area around it, is a wetland of international importance. The presence of 271 species of birds has been found in the area, including 43 birds which are listed in the Latvian Red Book and 15 that are listed in the European Red Book. The nature park includes the Nida swamp and the part of the sea which is alongside the park - newly estabilshed sea protected area "Nida - Pērkone". Between Lake Pape and the Baltic Sea we find Latvia’s oldest bird ringing station, where rings are attached not only to birds, but also to bats. Lake Pape is the first territory in Latvia where livestock adapted to life in the wild have been released for the proper management of the lake’s flood-land meadows. First there were wild horses (“Konik” horses), then aurochs and the European bison. Visitors can use bird and nature observation towers, nature trails, etc. The Ķoņi village is a unique example of a seaside fishing village. Pape is popular among bird-watchers, and the park’s visitors centre is found in the “Nature House” of the Worldwide Fund for Nature.

Kemeri National Park

Der Ķemeri Nationalpark wurde 1997 gegründet und umfaßt vor allem Feuchtgebiete – die flachen Küsten der Rigaer Bucht, einen überwucherten Küstensee, riesige Sümpfe, feuchte Wälder, Moore und überschwemmte Wiesen. Der Nationalpark ist enorm wichtig für den Schutz der Pflanzen (25% der in Lettlands Roter Liste erfaßten Pflanzen findet man hier) und Tiere, besonders Nist- und Zugvögel. Das Große Ķemeri Moor ist eins der größten Moore in Lettland. Es gibt auch andere, wie das Zaļais und das Raganu Moor. Die gewaltigen Moore sind auch wichtig wegen der Schwefelquellen und dem Heilschlamm. Für das einst berühmte Ķemeri Kurbad war das die Grundlage. Die meisten der kulturellen und historischen Objekte im Ķemeri Nationalpark stehen in Verbindung mit der Meeresküste als Ort für Freizeit und Erholung. Es gibt Naturlehrpfade, Fahrradrouten, Wanderwege, Vogelbeobachtungstürme und andere Einrichtungen. Das Besucherzentrum befindet sich im kürzlich renovierten „Meža mājā” (Waldhaus) in Ķemeri.

The Pavasaru-Odinu polder

This is an open territory which is 3.5 km long and 2 km wide.  It is located on the left bank of the Lielupe River between the village of Pavasari and the Odiņi homestead.  The polder was established during the Soviet era to obtain farmland, and back then it was used very intensively.  Today, it is slowly becoming overgrown, and despite this, this is one of the most important locations in Europe for corn-crakes.  A gravel road crosses the polder from the North to the South, and this is an excellent place to hear the songs of the corn-crake.
