라트비아 주변 최고의 교통량 없는 자전거 라이딩 코스

Cremon/Krimuldas Castle was built shortly after 1250 for representative purposes and to protect and manage the estates of the Archbishop of Riga. It was destroyed in 1601 during the Polish-Swedish War. The estate continued to operate, and Krimuldas Palace was built approximately 200 meters to the west to replace the castle. The southern façade of the palace was restored as an artificial ruin to complement its park.

The road along the ridge of the HPP dam has been recently repaired and is flat. The ride can be a peaceful rest, enjoying the sunset, or an intense test of endurance. In addition, you can exercise in the Salaspils beach park.

With its vast forest areas, wide paths and proximity to Lake Ķīšezers, this park offers a fresh change from the hustle and bustle of the city. Here you can relax and roll through shady pine forests while enjoying the clear air. The paths are well developed and mostly flat, which makes the park ideal for a leisurely ride or even a sporty interval training session. A particularly beautiful section takes you along the lake, where you can let your gaze wander over the water and stop at small rest areas along the way. Mežaparks has more to offer than just nature - the park is also culturally exciting: the large concert hall, the open-air museum and some sculptures along the paths give your ride an interesting change and remind you that Mežaparks is also known as a cultural meeting place in Riga.

Mežaparks, one of Riga's oldest garden city districts, is a sprawling and diverse park on the shores of Lake Ķīšezers. Originally known as the Emperor's Park, the area became an exclusive residential area in the early 20th century for Riga's wealthier society seeking to escape the city's noise. Today, the well-preserved Art Nouveau villas still exude this nostalgic charm and are among the city's most sought-after properties. The park offers much more than just architecture. For nature lovers, Mežaparks is a paradise: miles of walking paths, quiet forest trails and the opportunity to practice water sports on Lake Ķīšezers. The impressive amphitheater, designed for the famous Latvian Song Festival, exudes the special energy of this place. The surrounding recreational facilities, such as playgrounds, cafes and bicycle rental, make the park particularly diverse. In addition to the zoo, there are also hidden corners that invite you to explore, and the famous "Mežakaķis" climbing park provides variety. Mežaparks is a place that invites you to linger and explore, not only because of its history, but also because of its lively and at the same time relaxing atmosphere that attracts both locals and visitors. A visit is particularly worthwhile for a leisurely day trip or active recreation in the countryside.

The Mezaparks squirrel is a surprising highlight that will instantly bring a smile to your face. This huge, charming sculpture, with its delicate metal structure, is an unusual yet fitting sight in the heart of the park. It almost seems as if this oversized squirrel is watching over the park - a humorous and creative greeting to nature and the visitors who take a break here. Historically, Mezapark is one of Riga's oldest and largest city parks and offers an oasis of pine forests and well-kept paths. The creative placement of this artwork arouses curiosity and adds a playful touch to the park. The squirrel is a reminder that this park is not only a place to breathe and walk, but also a place where art and nature go hand in hand. Mezapark itself is worth recommending - ideal for a relaxed walk or bike ride and always enlivened by such details as the squirrel.

Nice castle with brewery and terrace

The majestic Krimulda Manor house was built in 1848 in the style of Neoclassicism.

Sigulda New Castle was built in 1878 in the Neo-Gothic style as residence for the Ducal Kropotkin family who are descended from the Grand princes of Smolenks. The manor center began to develop in the 17th century. None of those buildings survived, but there are a few remaining 18th and 19th century buildings built during the ownership of the Von Borghs and Kropotkins. During WWII, the New Castle was used as a headquarters for the Nord division of the German army. Just outside the castle is a bunker facility, btw. After the war, the USSR Council of Ministers turned it into a recreation house for high state officials. Since 2003 it now holds the Sigulda District Council.
