Very pretty Orthodox church in the center of Jūrmala. Very easy to find, it is at one end of Jūrmala's main pedestrian street.

Perfect for a relaxed ride into the city! This cycle path takes you through green avenues and along peaceful waters, where the surrounding nature always makes you forget the hustle and bustle of city life. The shady trees provide a pleasant coolness and invite you to enjoy. The center of Riga can be seen in the distance as you leisurely approach. A wonderful route that is characterized by its tranquility, especially in the mornings and evenings - perfect for a successful start or end to a bike tour!"

Cycling right on the beach – what an experience! The vastness of the beach and the nearby sound of the waves make every ride a real pleasure. The sand under the tires brings a special challenge, while the fresh breeze from the sea offers a wonderful cooling effect.

The sandy slope with its exposed roots requires full concentration and a steady hand on the handlebars. Every step has to be accurate, because the loose terrain combined with the roots can quickly turn into a slippery ride.

A varied terrain awaits you here with slightly hilly sections and soft moss ground, which dampens the noise of your bike and creates a calm, almost mystical atmosphere. The pines cast long shadows that immerse the ground in an interesting pattern of light and dark - especially in the early morning or in the evening hours, the light here seems almost surreal. The route is challenging enough to challenge your flow, but remains pleasant to ride. The occasional roots and uneven areas add extra dynamism, so you definitely won't get bored here. It is a special experience if you can occasionally take a look at the Lielupe, which flows quietly through the landscape.

These buildings give the district a cozy and nostalgic atmosphere, which is complemented by the small cafes, boutiques and galleries. There are often weekend markets here offering local products, crafts and delicacies - a paradise for lovers of regional specialties and handmade goods. Events such as concerts and art exhibitions attract both locals and travelers, making Kalnciema Quarter a lively cultural center. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and it seems like every corner tells a story.

The observation tower in Dzintari Mežaparks offers an impressive perspective of Jūrmala and its surroundings. Climbing the almost 30-meter-high structure opens up a view of the dense pine forests that stretch all the way to the Baltic Sea. Especially on clear days, you can enjoy a wide view that gives a good impression of Latvia's unique coastal landscape. The tower itself is a modern architectural highlight and blends harmoniously into the natural surroundings of the park. The ascent is via wide, safe stairs that wind around the tower and offer different levels to enjoy the view from different heights. Dzintari Mežaparks, known for its clean and well-maintained grounds, is a popular place for families, joggers and cyclists who want to enjoy nature close to the city. The tower is the icing on the cake of the park and an incentive for many to visit this place and experience the fresh sea air at a slightly different height.
