About events
These routes are further from Riga and are much wilder. Events are 3-5 hours long, depending on the specific route.
As always, we will help you discover the secrets of the bogs and the bog shoes will allow you to go where it would otherwise be difficult or even impossible. This will be a great opportunity to learn about hiking with bog shoes, overcome the fear of swamps in a comfortable and safe way, have a great time in nature and listen to fascinating stories. The walk will take place in any weather conditions, but of course we hope for a bright sun that will break through the fog.
The hike is expected to be medium challenging – the ground will shake and there will be some bumps. Challenging hiking with bogshoes will be possible for persons from 10 to 60 years of age. Age is not an obstacle if you are born to go hiking. The participant’s weight and foot size do not matter. Not suitable for people with mobility impairments.
