The St George Lutheran Church of Subate is on the north-eastern shore of Lesser Lake Subate. The church was built in the Byzantium style in 1685 and 1868 and was commissioned by the owner of the Prode Estate, H.F. Osten-Sacken. This is the only church in Latvia which is reminiscent of the typical appearance of Protestant churches in the late 17th century. The small towers at the corners of the building are of interest. Inside you will find a richly ornamented ensemble of sculptures and wood carvings, including a 17th-century altar, pulpit and pews, as well as artworks from the 17th and 18th century and a bell that was cast in 1682. Some of the interior design was the work of students at the Stelmuže wood carving school. |

The River Ķīšupe (length – 31 km) begins its journey in the marshlands of Lēdurga Parish. As the river reaches the seashore, its bed and the location of its mouth often changes. One of the tributaries of the Ķīšupe carries a rather interesting name – Pupaļurga. The name of the River Ķīšupe probably comes from the name of a man and his house. In the 17th century a man named Ķīsis (in English: ruffe) used to live by the river. |

Sietiņiezis is one of the largest white sandstone cliffs in Latvia, up to 15 m high and around 500 metres long. There is an interesting diversity in form here, with small caves and niches, erosion-based ravines, as well as sandstone formations which are reminiscent of poles. The word "sietiņš" refers to "sieve," and the cliff is so called because bees have drilled holes into it for time eternal. From the southern part of Sietiņiezis, you can get a good look at the ancient Gauja River valley, and all around it are lovely pine forests. There is a place on the banks of the Gauja which is meant for campfires and meals. |
