ACTIVITIES
We’ll be heading out on an approximately 6-hour paddling, complete with scenic breaks for rest and a shared lunch in nature. No need to worry about logistics — everything will be prepared in advance. All you’ll need is energy and enthusiasm, as we’ll be actively involved in all team challenges and cooking lunch together. Ingredients and equipment will be ready — the fun part is creating the meal as a group.
We will paddle along one of the most scenic sections of the Gauja River, starting in Cēsis and finishing at the Līgatne ferry crossing. The route winds through the heart of Gauja National Park, surrounded by sandstone cliffs, dense forests and beautiful river landscapes.

Comfortable, stable sports shoes or hiking shoes
