Description:
The trail is situated in the centre of Limbaži town and stretches along the coast of the Lake. The area provides for nice walking options with wooden boardwalks and paths. Here you can also climb a small watching tower, have a rest at the sandy beach, have a boat ride in the Lake and do some angling. Children can enjoy playing at the playgrounds. The watching tower allows bird lowers to spot some of the 99 bird species present in this area. Here is also an interesting art object to see – the Pike Perch with a Silver Scale. It is said that if you find it and rub, your wish may come true! Since 2015 the beach at Lielezers is every year being awarded with the eco certificate – the Blue Flag.
