Description:
Kazdanga Park is the largest park in Latvia (~196 ha), so here is a lot of space for running, nordic-hiking, cycling, skiing, as well as simply walking and leisurely enjoying the nature and the historical park. The park has got two parts (Valāta Park and Šēfers’ Birch Grove) on both sides of Kazdanga Dzirnezers (Mill Lake), connected with the lake boardwalk. There are lots of paths in the park. To help yourself finding the way, follow the signs and marking on trees (yellow, green and red coloured stripes, marking the different distance routes). There are also several resting areas along the way.
