About route
The main highlight of the route is the Ogres Valley Nature Park. The route is scenically attractive in all seasons, with park-like meadows and mixed oak, hornbeam, and pine forests along the banks of the Ogre River, as well as typical rural landscapes. It is complemented by a rope bridge over the Ogre River, a viewpoint, and a viewing tower. The small Sumulda River, which flows into the Ogre River, stands out with its unique river landscape. In the Mengele parish, there is an alternative section of the route that is visually appealing but has a poorer road surface during rainy periods.
You can make use of the free audio guide in the "Ogres novadnieks" app, specifically in the "Tourism" section.
