Hiking

You should take some time for Riga. It's fun to roam the streets of the old town to discover something new. Also a small break in one of the numerous, partly original cafés should not be missing.

Hiking

Riga's old town is over 800 years old and relatively well preserved. There are plenty of historic buildings and places to stop for refreshments. The Art Nouveau houses are particularly attractive.
