The dune rises gently above the river and opens up the view of the calm waters of the Lielupe, framed by sparse pine trees that cast their shadows on the light sand. The way there takes you through sandy paths that are a bit challenging, but the effort is definitely worth it when you finally stand at the top and can enjoy the view. As a mountain biker, you will certainly enjoy the combination of firm sand and the occasional root - a terrain that requires a little technique but is a lot of fun at the same time. The view from the top of the dune invites you to take a short breather, where you can enjoy the panoramic view of the river and the surrounding nature reserve. The early morning or late afternoon are ideal times to visit the dune. Then the light is particularly soft and conjures up an impressive play of colors and shadows across the landscape. A stop here is not only a welcome break, but also a quiet moment in nature that shows you the Latvian coastal landscape at its best.

At the Dzilnupe, you feel as if you have landed in the middle of the beavers' kingdom. Their cleverly constructed dam holds back the water, creating small, clear ponds that reflect the trees and the fresh spring greenery. The gentle rippling and harmonious tranquility of this scenery invite you to forget about time and enjoy nature in its purest form.

This small stream is dammed by the masterful work of a beaver, who has created a dam here, shaping the landscape in his own unique way. The water gently accumulates, reflecting the surrounding trees and giving the place a tranquil, almost enchanted atmosphere. The surrounding grasses and reeds sway in the wind and it feels like you are part of a hidden natural wonder.

Dabas park «Piejūra» is a true retreat for nature lovers. The narrow paths covered with soft needles meander through dense pine forests, and the lush green of mosses and lichens spreads like a carpet under the trees. The air is filled with the scent of pine trees and damp earth - an experience for the senses that immediately calms you down. You can walk here for hours, accompanied by the chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves, and simply enjoy the untouched nature. The park is ideal for all those who want to immerse themselves in the peace of the Latvian coastal forests and escape from everyday life.

The fine, light sand stretches for miles, and you are often almost alone here, accompanied only by the gentle sound of the waves and the traces of past hikers in the sand. The sky changes to soft shades of grey, and the sea merges with the sky on the horizon to form a calming unity. An ideal place for a long, relaxing walk or simply to escape from everyday life and let your thoughts wander. Here you can feel the freedom and untouched nature of the Latvian coast to the fullest.

The White Dune (Baltā Kāpa) near Lielupe is an impressive place on the coast of Jūrmala, fascinating for its unique history and striking nature. The dune was formed when the Lielupe River changed its course in 1757 and the massive dune with its steep slopes and asymmetrical shapes was formed. Today it is a protected natural monument and offers impressive views over the coast and the sea - especially in frosty weather, when the coastline seems almost mystical. The information boards here remind you that certain activities such as lighting fires or driving motorized vehicles on the dune are prohibited in order to protect the sensitive landscape. As you walk along here, you quickly realize why these protective measures are necessary: nature is shown here in its original, untouched form, and the steep slopes offer fantastic photo opportunities.
