“And what about the Gauja river – the beauty of Valmiera! Are there many cities in the world where the Gauja River would flow through right in the middle? A city without a river is like a violin without strings! In Valmiera, you would feel like in heaven! ” This is how it was once upon a time written by Pāvils Rozītis, the author of the famous Latvian novel “Valmieras puikas” (Boys of Valmiera).
We could not miss a visit to the current cornerstone of our team Artis Ločmelis during the anniversary season. The team Stirnu buks first met him here, still at the old Dalins’ stadium long ago in 2016! Artis has been an indispensable part of our team and the author of a large part of our course since then!
Artis Ločmelis: “The Gauja River has its own magic! The trail is similar to the river in nature. Sometimes rapid, sometimes calm. There are secrets of glens and picturesque outcrops of rocks. Meadows, forests, paths, firebreaks, and people.
See you in the trails of the folks living near the Gauja river created with love by a guy from Burkānciems!
