Vienu kilometru garā lokveida taka, kas ved pa lielāku nacionālā parka meža masīvu, uzskatāmi attēlo Žemaitijas augstienes un tuvākās apkārtnes reljefa veidošanās vēsturi. No takas augstākā punkta – Mikitai kalna, kas ir sens pagānu upurkalns, paveras (ainaviska stiga) tālākas apkārtnes skats. Kā takas interesantākie apskates objekti ir jāmin teikām apvītais akmens ar Velna pēdu un ar akmeņiem izliktas akas paliekas.

It is said that Krišjānis Valdemārs began to dream about a port at this location when he was a child, but a so-called protective port was only established in Roja in the early 20th century, with a protective dam 500 metres from the shore that was 213 m long.  The dam gradually disappeared, and the port was shut down in 1933.  Work on straightening the Roja River began in the 1930s, using a French machine to create berms and build rock dams and pile-based breakwaters that were subsequently extended several times.  In 1932, fishermen built a 107 m breakwater.  Reconstruction of the breakwaters was completed in 1972.  The fishing kolkhoz Banga used to be active here, merging shoreline fishermen’s homesteads. (Source: Roja TIC)

This is a homestead that is three km from the centre of Vecpiebalga and is in a lovely place – the Incēni hill.  There is a museum here featuring the author of the legendary fairy tale “Pussy’s Mill” by Kārlis Skalbe (1879-1945).  The poet and prose writer built the building in 1926 and spent summers there from that year until 1944.  The museum was opened in 1987.  The western slope of Vaktskalns hill right alongside the museum offers a lovely view of Lake Alauksts.  The cremated remains of Skalbe and his wife, Lizete, were reinterred at the location in 1992 from Sweden, where the poet died.  There is a unique monument to them in the form of a stone boat.

The cafe is situated in Stende, approximately 12 km away from Talsi.
