Valmiera – Gauja Nationam Park – Ruins of the cities of Hansa – Gauja – quite forest roads

The tour around the most beautiful cities of Vidzeme and the heart of the oldest nature park 

in Latvia. We get out in Valmiera, a small town that is the largest in Vidzeme, an old member of the Hansa trade union with lots of historical evidence and visit one of the most popular crafts beer brewery in Latvia. We leave towards Cesis via small forest roads with close to no traffic and away from civilization, 

where we’ll hear more 

bird songs than the roar of a vehicle. The road follows the longest river in Latvia – Gauja, and we’ll be able to see some of it’s wonders – Sieņiezis and the Cave of the Blacksmith.

This will not be a tour between tall buildings and cultural sites – this is a relaxing ride filled with fresh air and green forests. We ride until we reach an historic city of knights 

with ancient traditions and beautiful ruins. We explore the city, have a relaxing lunch and ride back to Riga.
