Between two ports
The hiking route will take you on a short hike, during which you will have the opportunity to see beautiful, photo-worthy, natural landscapes! Walking along the route, you will probably see ships entering the port of Salacgriva, 100 swans swimming on the beach or you will feel the echoes of summer festivals in the Fishermen's Park! It is possible to go hiking in both directions!

#1 Port of Salacgriva
The Port of Salacgriva is located on the northeastern part of the Gulf of Riga at the mouth of the River Salaca, 100 km from Riga and 13 km from the Latvian-Estonian border.
#2 Salacgriva lighthouse
The lighthouse of Salacgrīva is located on the right bank of the river Salaca - it is a quadrangular white tower with a red lantern and it was built in 1925. Today the lighthouse does not operate anymore - following this lighthose, all fishermen have already found their way home and the story has ended happily. The lighthouse was built, because due to the numerous sandbanks the coast between Salacgrīva and Ainaži was considered to be the most dangerous area for sailing in the whole Gulf of Riga.
#3 Alley of fame
