This territory is around 9 square kilometres in size and is found to the North of the village of Kūdra, where the so-called old peat quarries are found.  Peat was extracted here during the first period of Latvian independence.  Today the territory is overgrown, preserving the old and flooded quarries which offer a very unusual landscape.  The best way to examine them is on foot or bike, taking the road from the Kūdra railroad station which leads to Lake Sloka.

This unique territory covers more than 24,400 hectares, and the Soviet military used it as an aviation training centre. The history of the base dates back to 1951, when four kolkhozes were shut down, roads were closed, and several hundred farms and homes were simply moved elsewhere. A civilian presence at the base was restored only in 1993, when several new roads were installed. If you want to get a bird’s eye view of the base and its forests, you have to climb a high, manmade hillock from which commanders watched manoeuvres. We do not recommend that you wander off from the roads!

The old wooden tower at this site was torn down and replaced with the one that is there now. The restored tower offers one of the loveliest views in Eastern Latvia – one of the eight curves of the Daugava. This is the Rozališki curve. Here you will get a whole new sense of the Daugava River and its mighty valley in a place where the waters of a hydroelectric plant bubble away in our present day and age. It is claimed that the scene that is seen on the 10 lats note is based on the view which can be seen to the West from the tower.

Jau pēc dievnama veidola var spriest, ka vēl ne tik sen – padomju laikos ēka bija izmantota citām vajadzībām. Pēc 2. pasaules kara to atsavināja draudzei, bet torni – uzspridzināja, dievnamā ierīkojot noliktavu. 20. gs. deviņdesmitajos gados draudze uzsāka baznīcas atjaunotni un tagad tā kalpo savam pamatmērķim.

The White Dune is one of the landmarks of Saulkrasti, on the Vidzeme gulf coast. The dune offers a splendid view of the sea, the mouth of the Inčupe River and the vast beach. The White Dune formed as the wind drove beach sand over the clay silt of Baltic Ice Lake. Its white 18 meters high sand outcrop once helped local fishermen find their way home. The dune got its name from its white, hardened layers of sand which look like sandstone.
In White Dune are set up following Nature Design objects: "Entrance gates" which symbolizes White Dune and its fragility. On the wall of this object an information about White Dune are exposed. "Frīda the Hedgehog" and "Fredis the Rabbit"- both objects invite people to be polite when visiting nature sites and not to throw rubbish on the ground as well as to be quiet in the forest. "The bug trail" which helps to understand that humans are not the only one creatures in the nature. "Listening device" which is made in the form of trumpet and helps to listen into the sounds of sea and wind. The approximately 4 kilometers long Sunset Trail winds from the White Dune to the center of Saulkrasti.

Rehtšprehera siers top Siguldas novada Lēdurgas pagastā, zemnieku saimniecībā “Mazlauri”. Siera ražošanai saimniecībā pievērsās 2015. gadā, meklējot jaunu izaicinājumu un iespēju radīt produktus ar pievienoto vērtību. Siers tiek gatavots pēc itāļu receptēm un nogatavināts 2–12 mēnešus, ievērojot tradicionālās metodes – īpašā telpā, uz egles koka plauktiem, kontrolētā mitrumā un temperatūrā.

Sieri

Cietie sieri (nogatavināti 6-12 mēnešus): Grand Marine, Gouda 8 mēnešus gatavināts.

Puscietie sieri (nogatavināti 2-4 mēnešus): Gouda (pieejams ar linsēklas eļļas pārklājumu vai ar speciālu siera pārklājumu), Tallegio (pieejams ar balzamiko etiķa pārklājumu vai speciālu siera pārklājumu), Toskāna, Sorento.

Uz vasaras saulgriežu laiku tiek gatavots arī kas līdzīgs Jāņu sieram – nogatavināts siers ar ķimenēm. 

Kā top siers

Siers tiek gatavots no pašu saimniecības govju piena – kopumā saimniecībā ir 90 slaucamas Holšteinas melnraibās šķirnes govis. Rehtšprehera siers top no tikko slaukta, nepasterizēta govs piena, kas tūlīt pēc slaukšanas tiek nodots pārstrādei. Tas ļauj saglabāt piena dabisko garšu un raksturu.

Apmeklētājiem

Saimniecības apmeklētājiem iespējams redzēt un dzirdēt patiesu stāstu par to, kā rodas piens un siers - kā uztur piena lopu ganāmpulku, kā audzē pilnvērtīgu, uzturvielām bagātu barību, ko nozīmē govju labturība, lai iegūtu ekstra klases pienu, un kāda ir praktiskā puse, dzīvojot un saimniekojot laukos. Noslēgumā ieskats siera ražošanā un siera degustācija.

The Livonian Order built a fortified castle on the largest island in Lake Alūksne – Marijas Island (Pilssala Island) in 1342.  It was linked to the land by a 120 m drawbridge.  The castle had several forecastles, and it was regularly modernised and expanded until the end of the 17th century.  It was one of the largest Livonian Order Castles, with similar ones found in Vastelina and Izborsk.  Defensive barriers were put up around the castle, which survived until the Great Northern War.  Its central part was blown up by the defeated Swedish military in 1702, after which Russians completely sacked it.  All that is left are the castle ruins on the island, which is now linked to Alūksne and Temple Hill by two wooden bridges.  An open-air stage alongside the castle ruins is used for various public events.
