One of the most important locations for migrating water birds in terms of rest and feeding in Latvia is the Svēte flood-land, which overflows in the spring time, along with the Svēte polder. It has been calculated that when circumstances are good, tens of thousands of birds can be seen in the area – swans, geese, corn-crakes, pintails, predatory birds, plover-type birds, etc.

Торговый канал, протяженностью неполных 3 км, в советское время являлся закрытой зоной со статусом режима приграничного района. Лиепайский порт был известен еще в XIV столетии. В конце XVII века здесь выкопали канал, который соединил море с Лиепайским озером - теперешний Торговый канал. Заканчивается он Зимним портом и двумя молами, из которых Южный мол служит излюбленным местом для прогулок и рыбалки. В южной части Торгового канала тянется Променад, на котором установлены Янтарные часы.

Uzskata, ka Limbažu Ķezberkalniņā bijusi Metsepoles lībiešu novada pils Lemisele. Tāpat atrodamas ziņas, ka līdz pat 16. gs. no jūras pa Svētupi un Dūņezeru līdz šejienei braukuši tirgoņi. 1223. g. bīskaps Alberts Limbažos uzbūvēja mūra pili. Limbaži tāpat kā Valmiera kļuva par Hanzas savienības locekli. 16. gs. sākumā gan tās ekonomiskā loma ievērojami samazinājās, jo Svētupe un Dūņezers kļuva kuģniecībai neizmantojami. Laikā no 16. – 18. gs. pilsēta un pilsētnieki cieta no kariem, slimībām un ugunsgrēkiem. Tā rezultātā iedzīvotāju skaits sasniedza savu visliekāko kritumu – astoņi cilvēki. 19. – 20. gs. mijā un 20. gs. sākumā saimnieciskā dzīve atkal atjaunojas.

This is an easy 3-day route, suitable for any traveller ready to take some steps outside the capital and get into the woods. You will start the tour by taking a train from Rīga to Ķemeri. The walk will start in the Ķemeri resort park leading to the legendary sulphur spring and continue to the “Forest House” – the visitor’s centre of the Ķemeri National Park. The park is established for the protection of mainly wetlands – the shallow coast of the Gulf of Riga, the overgrown seaside lakes, the vast marshlands, mires (forests) and flood plans. Besides, there is the wooden plank Melnalkšņu swamp forest trail. Next, the Forest Trail takes one to the Lake Sloka, a shallow coastal lake with rich aquatic plants, sulphur springs and important migratory bird rest areas. On the banks of it, there is a 7 m high floating bird-watching tower. Further, the Forest Trail runs to the Gulf of Riga in the small fishermen village of Bigauņciems, where it joins with the Baltic Coastal Hiking Route (E9 European long distance path). From there on, the trail runs along the coast direction Jūrmala – the most popular resort town in Latvia with the widest sandy beaches. The tour ends in Ragakāpa Nature Park, which is established to preserve the dunes covered in old pine forests and natural diversity of the seaside. The Jūrmala Open-Air Museum is a place to get to know a traditional local fishermen’s farmstead.
