Nīcas siera ražotne atrodas zemnieku saimniecībā “Birzmaļi”, kas ir viena no lielākajām piena ražotājām Lejaskurzemē. Ideja par amatniecības siera ražošanu radās 2017. gadā, un tā tika īstenota, ar LEADER programmas atbalstu izveidojot ražotni. Ikkatrs siera ritulis ir siera meistaru roku darbs, veidots ar lielu atbildību un rūpēm par augstāko kvalitāti. SieriSvaigais siers – mocarellas tipa svaigais siers ar dažādām piedevām, piemēram, ķimenēm, baziliku un papriku, kā arī citām rūpīgi piemeklētām garšām. Puscietais siers – gatavots pēc Nīderlandes siera metodes, kas piešķir tam maigāku, nedaudz saldenu garšu un elastīgu tekstūru. Siers tiek nogatavināts no trijiem līdz pat divpadsmit mēnešiem. Cietais siers – recepte balstīta Itālijas siera tradīcijās. Tas izceļas ar izteiktu garšu un raksturu un tiek nogatavināts sešus vai divpadsmit mēnešus, iegūstot bagātīgu un niansētu garšas buķeti. Kā top siersSiers tiek gatavots no nepasterizēta rīta slaukuma govs piena, ko sāk apstrādāt vēl siltu. Šāda pieeja ļauj saglabāt piena dabisko garšu un raksturu, padarot sieru izteiksmīgu, niansētu un dzīvu. Sieru gatavo meistare Dace Vecbaštika, apvienojot tradīcijas ar rūpīgu roku darbu. ApmeklētājiemIkdienā apmeklētājus ražotnē neuzņem, taču siera degustācijas ir iespējamas, iepriekš vienojoties. Nīcas sieru iespējams nogaršot arī kafejnīcā “Dzintariņš” Bernātos, kā arī restorānos “Parka Paviljons” un “Spīķeris 53” Liepājā. Kur iegādāties sierusNīcas sierus iespējams iegādāties tirdzniecības vietās: LATS veikalos Nīcā, siera stendā Liepājas Pētertirgū, mājražotāju veikaliņā “Martas kiosks” Grobiņā, mājražotāju tirdziņos Liepājā, Rožu laukumā, atpūtas kompleksa “Rāmkalni” veikalā. |

Маршрут, для прохождения которого не требуется специальная подготовка, если его проходить летом. Абава – это река с самой впечатляющей древней долиной в Курземе. Она есть и остается «классикой» Курземе. На Абаве несколько выраженных стремнин, обычно в местах, где в ее русле и по берегам появляются небольшие обнажения доломитовых пород. На участке между Веги и Рендой падение реки уменьшается и она становится более спокойной. Информация о маршруте от Latvijas Lauku forums |

Construction of the Neibāde resort in 1823, started up hospitality traditions. The park, designed in an English style, was created by the gardener Akerbergs, who was brought from Estonia by Baron August von Pistohlkors. In the 1920s – 1930s the Pēterupe – Neibāde Seashore Aid and Improvement Society looked after the restoration and care of the monument and the park of the resort that was ruined during the war, the appearance of Saulkrasti, the organisation of different events and foundation of the theatre and the choir, led by Olga Cīrule. Saulkrasti open-air stage has always been a place for festivities. 16 July 1933 is a date that deserves special attention as it was on this date that the open-air stage became the place where Neibāde and Pēterupe were renamed Saulkrasti. The open-air stage was repeatedly rebuilt and improved. Both during the Soviet era, as well as later, this was a meeting place for locals on joyful moments, on moments of change and remembrance. The stage was the place of origin of the Popular Front of Latvia (Latvijas Tautas fronte) Saulkrasti branch. Now the stage is a meeting place and holds different events on summer weekends. Each year Saulkrasti town festival concert takes place on this open-air stage. |

The route brings you to Kaunas, multiple Lithuanian regional parks and allows to enjoy the landscapes of the river Nemunas. Kaunas is Lithuania’s second largest city. It is notable for its modernist architecture. The city is located at the confluence of the two largest Lithuanian rivers: Nemunas and Neris. Moving further from Lampėdžiai to Vilkija, the Forest Trail runs for two days along trails and small countryside gravel roads next to the right bank of the river Nemunas. This section is shaped by beautiful landscapes with views of the river, the waterfront meadows and small villages. Do not miss the ferry in Vilkija crossing over the river Nemunas, one of the few still in operation in the Baltic States. For the next two days from Vilkija, the Forest Trail runs through its most spectacular sections in the Dubysa Regional Park from Kirkšnovė to Šiluva with mounds on riverbanks and historical churches now and there. This regional park covers the impressive Dubysa river valley, which reaches a depth of 40 m and a width of up to 500 m. Be prepared for a rolling terrain. Next, the route will take you to the town of Šiluva – the Catholic pilgrimage site – and to the Kurtuvėnai Regional Park. It is among the most forested areas of Central Lithuania; thus, the regional park with its glaciated valleys is a wonderland of forests, waters and wetlands. The Forest Trail leads along small forest paths, tourist trails, beautiful tree alleys and wetlands. The walk ends in Šaukėnai village, from where the city of Šiauliai is easily reached. |
