About excursion
Home-smoked meats, a forest trail, a fish master class and tea at an organic farm. A peaceful day filled with stories and taste.
Morning
Enjoy aromatic coffee and freshly baked pastries at a family production site, where the scents, tastes, and colors of summer come alive. The hostess will offer lovingly prepared traditional Latvian products, either indoors or outdoors. Next, take a revitalizing walk along the coastal trail, breathing in the sea air as the path stretches from the White Dune to the Sun Bridge. In less favorable weather, visit the Salacgrīva Regional Museum to hear stories about Salacgrīva, local fishing, and fishermen of the Northern Vidzeme coast, including traditional lamprey fishing with boats and local history.
Lunch
Tasting lunch with a fish cooking masterclass by a chef renowned for winning the hearts of locals with aromatic fish soups, smoked fish, grilled and baked fish dishes, and refined fish appetizers. The high-quality fish products have also been recognized by the President of Latvia.
Afternoon
Learn about Latvian bread, its natural ingredients, and the love and joy of baking delicious treats! Participate in an unforgettable bread-baking workshop and tasting that makes the story of bread personal for each guest. Purchase various types of rye bread, cakes, cookies, and other pastries. Visit a local artisan farm. Along the Vidzeme coast, you can meet both traditional and modern craftspeople — woodcarvers, ceramists, textile artists, jewelers, creators of linen and wool products, as well as maritime heritage specialists who make ropes, nets, and decorative items in nautical style. On the way home, enjoy an afternoon tea and tasting of processed fruit products at an organic farm cultivating bio vegetables, berries, fruits, and teas. Homemade preserves, juices, syrups, and jams are made according to traditional and modern recipes. Taste the farm’s organic products, which won the Silver award in the 2020 “Novada Garšas” competition. You can also explore a retro auto-moto collection and historic ethnographic items in the century-old barn.
