More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The engine clicks to life and the pine-scented air grabs your attention as the quad rolls out from a small staging area on Riga’s outskirts. A short transfer moves you from the city into a patchwork of pine forest, open fields and a lakeside track where a roughly 5 km course threads between trees, dunes and mud. Expect bursts of speed on straightaways, tight berms through forest trails, and a different rhythm when you take the sandy stretches closer to the lake.
