Skatu tornis uz pontoniem, kuru ar sauszemi savieno laipa. No tā praktiski pārskatāms viss Slokas ezers līdz pat Kauguriem, īpaši tā ziemeļdaļa. Pie torņa meklējams sēravots. Piemērots putnu vērošanai visa gada garumā, t.sk. ziemās, jo ezerā saglabājas neaizsalstoši lāsmeņi. |

Kīdevas muiža rakstos ir minēta 1614. g., taču pašreiz redzamā divstāvu kungu māja, ir celta 19. gs. beigās. Ēkas sienas ir klātas ar koka šķindeļiem, kas viens otru pārklāj kā zivs zvīņas. Šāds kungu mājas sienu pārklājums Igaunijas mērogā ir unikāls. Laikā no 1919. – 1951. g. tajā atradās skola. Blakus muižai atrodas neliels parks. Diemžēl turpat pusgadsimtu ilgās pamestības rezultātā ēkas atrodas ļoti kritiskā stāvoklī. Tas ir arī pietiekams apmeklējuma iemesls. |

Neliela apdzīvota vieta ar skolu, bibliotēku un veikalu. Ziemeļos no Vīdales redzamas vējdzirnavu paliekas. Dodoties Rīgas jūras līča virzienā, ceļš šķērso Šlīteres Zilo kalnu krauju ar iespaidīgiem skatiem bezlapu laikā un smilšakmens atsegumiem. Pa kreisi redzams Zilo kalnu avots – labiekārtota ūdens ņemšanas vieta. Ceļu, kas iet no Vīdales uz Melnsila pusi, vietējie sauc par Knipeldambi. To it kā būvējusi vācu armija 1. pasaules kara laikā, liekot uz ceļa apaļkokus un apberot tos ar granti. |

Blakus Lestenes luterāņu baznīcai esošajos kapos ir pārapbedīti vairāk nekā deviņi simti 2. pasaules karā kritušo karavīru, galvenokārt Kurzemes cietokšņa, Zemgales un Vidzemes kaujās kritušie. Karavīru piemiņai uzstādīts tēlnieces Artas Dumpes veidotais piemineklis “Dzimtene Māte – Latvija”.

Uz kapu plāksnēm ir iegravēti ~ 11 000 karavīru vārdu, taču domā, ka to skaits nākotnē pieaugs līdz 20 000. |

The valley of the Baķupīte River and the sea had remnants of pilings that provided evidence about a Medieval port.

Located in the northern part of Valmiera, the Valmiermuiža Estate mansion (Neo-Baroque Style) was built between 1764 and 1771 by Prince August Friedrich of Schleswig, Holstein and Soderburg. Over the course of time it has been owned by other people. According to modern evidence, the mansion was a one-story building with a Baroque tower and a two-story addition in the early 20th century, which made it appropriate as a summer home and hunting lodge. The building burned down in 1918. Two years later, Valmiermuiža became a prison camp for captured soldiers. Later the addition to the mansion was restored and used as an elementary school. In 1936, the building became a prison, and it was once again a prison camp for captured soldiers during World War II. Later the building burned down again, and the ruins were removed. Still surviving is the Valmiermuiža tower, with ceiling paintings that are a cultural monument, as is the surrounding park. The Valmiermuiža brewery is alongside the historical monument, thus providing second wind for the whole region. |
