Categories: ,

Description

One journey – four different rivers around Jelgava: Vircava, Lielupe, Driksa and Iecava!

The start of the trip in the narrow Vircava river, where we will boat to Lielupe. Then the calm current of the Lielupe River will lead us to Jelgava, where we will pass Pasta Sala on the Driksa River and reach the Pilssala lookout tower. From the tower you will have a view of Jelgava and the Lielupe floodplain meadows, and there is also a good chance of meeting wild horses.

Then, enjoying the vastness of the Lielupe River, we will row to its largest tributary on the right – the Iecava. There you can see the end of Pilssala and the mouth of the Driksa into Lielupe. We will row up the Iecava to Kauguri Ponds in Ozolnieki.
