Explore the Daugava Loops on a boat trip aboard “Dinaburga”! The Daugava is the main artery of Daugavpils Municipality, winding through scenic bends. From its banks, expansive views open up across a unique valley, where a castle was built in the past and the riverbanks are surrounded by local cultural and historical sites. A boat trip is a great opportunity to discover the cultural and historical heritage and see for yourself the most scenic stretch of the Daugava, rich in sights.
During the trip, you will see:
• Slutišķi Cliff, the largest exposure of Quaternary deposits in the Latvian part of the Daugava Valley.
• The “Daugava Gates”, the narrowest section of the ancient Daugava Valley between Slutišķi and Ververi cliffs, and one of the most significant sites on the “Latvian Green Pearls” list.
• Ververi Cliff, a 42-metre-high cliff of Quaternary deposits offering an unforgettable view of the “Daugava Gates”.
• Markova Hillfort, one of the smallest Latgalian hillforts.
• Slutišķi Old Believer village, where time stopped more than 100 years ago. It is the only museum site in Latvia where you can learn about Old Believer culture and daily life in the first half of the 20th century.
• Enjoy magnificent natural scenery preserved when construction of the Daugavpils Hydroelectric Power Station was halted, saving this unique natural area. This is one of the symbols of our National Awakening.
The trip ends at the “Daugavas lokos” campsite. The trip lasts 60 minutes. See you on board!
