Nature-inspired sauna and SPA rituals in Gauja National Park, Latvia
Gauja National Park is the largest national park in the Baltic States, revealing to travellers the treasures of pristine nature, ancient history and culture as well as reviving energy and peace with authentic bath and SPA rituals.
The bathhouses and glass rooms of Ziedlejas merge with the hillsides, fruit trees, pond and forest, forming a picturesque landscape. In the authentic Glass, Smoke and Wool Baths, the body is pampered and the spirit enhanced in the relaxed and gentle environment of nature-inspired bath rituals. The bath ritual ends with a leisurely rest, a conversation with the owner of the bath and a treat with herbal tea, homemade bread and honey. In Ziedlejas baths, you can also enjoy special rituals: family, solar, wedding and others. After one, you can continue your recreation in the Glass Room, a comfortable design suite surrounded by meadows, birdsong during the day, the countryside’s silence, and the starry sky at night.
Another hidden gem of the Vidzeme Upland is the “Keep the wild and free” glamping. Your stay here will be unforgettable thanks to leisurely ‘floating’ in a tent and diving into the gentle waters of a forest lake. Relax in a cozy dome tent, cook a meal on a campfire and explore the untouched nature of the Gauja National Park while cycling or SUPing on a forest lake.
In the picturesque village of Ligatne, in the “Ligatne” rehabilitation center, you can rejuvenate and improve your health by means of a wide selection of SPA pools, baths, massages, sauna and hiking trails leading to the Gauja River.
If you are into deep relaxation, welcome to Mīļmājiņa, a small house embracing love and homely vibes. Here, you can enjoy a real old-fashioned “Alfred’s Dark Sauna”, where the warmth of the wood and the spirit of the sauna emanating from the stones invigorate and energize.
