Don’t be lazy! Join the training hike in Jūrmala on May 23 – JŪRMALA PROLOGUE [24km]
This year as well, we invite everyone interested (both those planning to take on the big 136km September adventure and those who simply want to stretch their old bones) to join our free training hikes, the first of which will take place on Saturday, May 23 in the Jūrmala area.
During the hike, participants will have the opportunity to chat with graduates of the Kolka ← Dubulti hike, ask questions to the organizing team, and listen to valuable advice. We recommend going on the training hike with the gear you plan to use in September (shoes, clothing, trekking poles, etc.), as well as a backpack weighing no less than 10kg, in order to simulate the conditions of the real hike as closely as possible.
