Sunīši: Reiņa track
The Gauja Valley defines the setting of Sunīši — wooded, rolling ground around this small Vidzeme settlement gives Reiņa trase a rural character close to Sigulda. Reiņa trase is an outdoor recreation centre with a golf course and slopes used for winter sports, set among birch and pine woodland rather than in an urban resort. The site belongs to the wider landscape around Gauja National Park, Latvia’s first national park, established in 1973. Nearby Sigulda, on the Gauja River, is known for its medieval castle complexes and its long-standing role in Latvian outdoor recreation. Here, open grounds, forest edges and gentle relief are central to the character of central Vidzeme.

Riga’s historic centre is recognised by UNESCO for its medieval core and celebrated Art Nouveau architecture. Beyond the capital, Gauja National Park brings river valleys, sandstone outcrops and historic estates into one of the country’s best-known landscapes.
