4 Hiking & Trekking Tours in Latvia Worth Booking

1.Hike In Gauja National Park – Up And Down The Switzerland Of Latvia

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 23 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $138Our pick

Hike Gauja National Park from Riga on a guided 15 km route through forests, river valleys, caves, and Sigulda, Latvia’s Little Switzerland.

“This was the highlight of my trip to Latvia so far. The scenery was beautiful! We walked alongside the river for a good portion of the hike, and the view from the top of the hill was breathtaking. There was even a section of the hike that went through a beautiful grassy pasture with cows. It was such a cool experience to go from the Riga city scene to the peace and quiet of the park. The amount of walking and areas of incline was worth every second. The tour guide was so informative, and because I was solo it was a very personalized experience. I definitely recommend this hike…”
