The cosy land road along the sea is 1 km long, and it offers a look at the wonderful aspects of the village. To the right are rocks from the sea, as well as miniature flower gardens on the seashore with tempting benches and overturned boats. On the side of the shore is the Kaltene library, which is more than 100 years ago. It was initially a summer home for Baron Nolken, and it was built in 1899. Later it was rebuilt several times and took on new roles. An elementary school was installed here in 1926, after which it became a club and then, in 1992, a primary school once again. The path runs along beautiful seashore homesteads, among which one can find the former homes of old fishermen and ship builders such as Burliņi. At one time, the Žulnieki portage at Smilgas was the site of the kiln of blacksmith Pēteris Valdemārs. He was the main blacksmith for ships between Kaltene and Upesgrīve. (Source: Roja TIC) |

Saaremaa, kas no igauņu valodas tulkojumā nozīmē "salu zeme" ir kā neizskaidrojams magnēts, kas ik vasaru pievelk ne tikai daudzus Latvijas, bet arī ārvalstu ceļotājus. Neparastais ar salām izraibinātais un zilais jūras klajs, savdabīgās kadiķu pļavas - alvāri, seni, neredzētas formas Dievnami, Baltijas tautām nozīmīgi vēstures pieminekļi - pilskalni, pils, nepieredzēta sugu, īpaši - putnu bagātība, vējdzirnavas, Eiropas iespaidīgākais meteorīta krāteris, senie zvejnieku ciemi ar salenieku parašām un īpatnībām - tās ir tikai dažas salas iezīmes. Salas galvaspilsēta - Kuressaare ir viena no skaistākajām Igaunijas mazpilsētām ar senu rātsnamu un rātslaukumu un vienu no iespaidīgākajām viduslaiku pilīm Baltijā, kurai pēc izskata nav līdzīgu. Kuressaare vērts pasēdēt kādā no pilsētas krodziņiem. Saaremaa salā ceļotāji tiek gaidīti vienmēr, par ko liecina labi pārdomātā un kvalitatīvā tūrisma infrastruktūra. Sala ir īsta paradīze ne tikai mierīgas atpūtas meklētājiem, bet arī visa veida aktīvās atpūtas piekritējiem - kājāmgājējiem, velobraucējiem, jūras viļņu vagotājiem un dabas vērotājiem! |

This tour is a road trip from Rīga to Vilnius, stopping along the road to hike on nature trails of the Baltic Coastal Hiking Route.

Musteikas pirmsākumi ir meklējami jau 18. gs. Līdz Musteikai no Marcinkones puses var nokļūt pa grantētu ceļu, kas ved gar bijušajiem kolhoza zivju dīķiem. Automašīnu var atstāt ciema sākumā un izstaigāt to ar kājām, izjūtot veco ēku smaržu un šarmu. Musteikā atrodas Dzūkijas biškopības vēsturei veltīts „dzīvs” muzejs, kur stropos dzīvo bites, bet tā saimnieks ir biškopis pēc aicinājuma un būtības. Ja palūgsiet, viņš demonstrēs – kā ar krama, metāla un posas piepes palīdzību senos laikos ieguva uguni. |
