Description:
Nice and pleasant walking path in the very centre of Saldus stretching along the Ciecere River, which allows to enjoy the calm flow of the river, the beautiful city surroudings with lots of trees and flowers, cosy resting areas and see the variety of birds living by the river. At the end of the path it is possible to continue the walk along Zvejnieku Street to reach Lake Saldus, which has been installed with wide wooden boardwalks on the coast, children playground and a resting area.
Accessibility
The path is overall accessible to people in wheelchairs with an assistant and parents with baby strollers in its whole length, though it should be noted that there are few steps at the end of the path near Zvejnieku Street. At some stretches the wooden boardwalk might be damaged (rough, cranky or broken planks). At some places at the start or end of the boardwalk there is a small step. Part of the stretch that goes along the market square has tactile paving for visually impaired.
