We start at Sigulda Medieval Castle, built by the Livonian Order in the 13th century. We walk the walls, climb the tower and take in the whole ancient Gauja valley from the viewing platform.

Then we move to the Turaida Museum Reserve — 42 hectares with the red-brick castle, the church, Dainu Hill and the grave of the Rose of Turaida.

The route is walkable and the pace is adapted to the group. Entrance tickets are not included.
