Description

Set out on a full-day kayaking adventure through the breathtaking Gauja River Valley, just outside Riga, Latvia. This guided experience invites you to paddle along the country’s longest river, surrounded by the pristine forests and ancient sandstone cliffs of Gauja National Park.

Your journey begins with a convenient pickup in Riga, followed by a scenic drive to the river. Once there, your knowledgeable eco-tour guide will introduce you to the region’s unique landscapes and fascinating cultural history, using an engaging, interactive approach.

Spend around five hours on the water, gliding past steep riverbanks and 350-million-year-old sandstone formations. On warm days, you’ll have the chance to pause for a refreshing swim in the clear river, making the most of Latvia’s natural beauty.

All kayaking equipment is provided, including a comfortable two-seat kayak or canoe, along with local snacks and drinks to keep you energized. The tour accommodates different fitness levels, with daily distances ranging from 10 to 20 kilometers based on your group’s preference.

After a memorable day exploring Gauja National Park, you’ll be transferred back to Riga. This adventure is perfect for nature lovers seeking an active, immersive experience in Latvia’s great outdoors. Secure your spot now and discover the wild beauty of the Gauja River Valley!
