Trip to Kemeri National Park & Jurmala from Riga

Kemeri National Park was established in 1997. With a territory of 38 165 ha is the third largest National Park in Latvia. The greatest national treasure in the Kemeri National Park is the diversity of wetlands there - swamps, shallow seashore lakes, bogs, and animals that live in the National Park. Jurmala is located on the Gulf of Riga, at a distance of 25 km to the West of Riga. During this tour, you will have a chance to see the charming wooden summer cottages, decorated with fascinating carvings dating back to the 1900s and successfully harmonizing with the more recently built cottages and spa health centers. You will have a stroll along the golden sand sea coast as well as a walk along the central pedestrian Jomas Street full of cafes and souvenirs. Additionally, you will be provided with a choice of excellent places to have lunch with traditional Latvian or modern cuisine during this tour.

Guests will be picked up at their designated hotel or apartment, embarking on an approximately 1-hour journey each way. Throughout the trip, I will share the captivating history of Riga and Latvia, addressing any questions you may have. Our first stop is the Great Ķemeri Bog Boardwalk, a prime location for bird viewing during migratory seasons. Explore the enchanting land of moss, small bog pine trees, acacia, dark lakes, and the fragrance of wild rosemary with ease and safety. Next, we'll visit Kemeri Resort, an area within the Jurmala seaside town that served as a resort since the 18th century, thanks to the therapeutic sulfur water in nearby springs. During the excursion, I'll guide you through Jurmala town, highlighting key attractions such as Dzintari forest park, Jurmala Beach, and Jomas street.
