Tūrisma gide Ineta Jansone piedāvā ekskursijas grupām uz Melnalkšņu dumbrāja laipu. Melnalkšņu dumbrāja laipa ir viena no īsākajām un interesantākajām takām Ķemeru nacionālajā parkā (600 m). Melnalkšņu dumbrājā Vēršupītes krastos novērojami dabiskam mežam raksturīgi elementi – jauni, kā arī veci un dobumaini koki, kritalas, sausoņi, ciņi. Daudzveidīga ir meža putnu fauna. Jebkurā gadalaikā melnalkšņu dumbrājs ir īpašs. Taču visā krāšņumā dumbrājs atklājas tieši pavasarī. Vēršupītes pālu laikā ūdeņi pārklāj lielāko dumbrāja daļu, bet visapkārt zied zeltainās purenes, gaiss vibrē no putnu dziesmām un dzeņu bungošanas.

The first wooden church was built here in 1252, and the brick church was built in 1665.  It burned down and was restored in 1672, but it was rebuilt in later years.  There are important artistic monuments in the interior of the church – the altar, the pulpit and the painted organ.  Legendary Duke Jacob Kettler of Courland (1610-1682) was baptised in the church and married Princess Charlotte Louise from Brandenburg in it.  During the Soviet era, the church housed a museum and a concert hall.  According to legend, the name of the church is based on a woman called Catherine, who donated funds to build the church, was subjected to lies, tortured and then proclaimed as a saint.  Above the side entrance is a medallion of a woman with a crown of thorns, torture equipment and a sword in her hand.  Elements of this story can also be seen in the herald of Kuldīga.  The steeple of the church offers a good look at the roofs of the ancient part of the city.

Šis ir viens no retajiem ceļiem, kurš saglabājies kā notikumu liecinieks. Ceļš ved no Krimuldas uz Siguldu. Jau vācbaltu apgaismotāja novadpētnieka – mākslinieka Johana Kristofa Broces 1794. gada zīmējumā "Siguldas un Krimuldas pilsdrupas" redzams lauku ceļš gar Krimuldas pili, pa kuru iet zemnieks un darba ratus velk zirgs. Lai braukšana pa Gaujas senlejas nogāzi ar zirga pajūgu būtu droša, ceļu izveidoja līkloča formā, tā uzbrauktuvi padarot daudz lēzenāku. Domājams, ka ceļš atjaunots 19 gs., kad Krievijas cars Aleksandrs otrais un viņa sieva ieradušies uz vizīti siguldā. Pāri ceļam bijuši vairāki mazi tiltiņi, ko iedzīvotāji dēvējuši par velna tiltiem. Tagad serpentīna ceļš kļuvis par romantisku pastaigu vietu.
