Active Experiences

For adventurers looking to experience the Baltics by active days and well rested nights, we have a range of different suggestions. Long distance hikes through the Curonian Spit and cycling tours through the wilds of Lithuania are waiting, but what about something completely out of the ordinary?
You could try dog sledding through Gauja National Park or kayaking in Trakai. These experiences will stay with you forever, especially as you glide through the water past one of the most impressive castles in the whole of the Baltics.
If dog sledding and kayaking won’t raise your pulse enough, how about survival practice in the wilderness? Whatever your threshold for adventure, we’ll create a bespoke Baltic experience for you and your group.

Hiking Along Curonian Spit

This place is simply beyond description. Majestic dunes and light filled, pine tree forests lead down to the beautiful lagoon. Watch as the water glows in the sunset, before flowing out into the mighty Baltic Sea. To hike here is to experience the Baltic adventure for real, with the beauty of the Baltic coast at your feet.

Kayaking in Trakai

Whether you have never tried kayaking before or if you’re an experienced paddler, kayaking in Trakai is something that you simply must try. Paddle across the lake and have your breath taken away by one of the most beautiful landmarks in Lithuania, the castle. This active and exhilarating experience is something you will remember for a life time. An explorer’s dream.

Bog shoe walking in Lahemaa National Park

Imagine walking through a wetland, without getting wet. You no longer need to imagine, as you can do just that when you don a pair of Bog Shoes and travel through the wetland as easily as a wading bird. Speaking of wading birds, wherever you look on this experience, you’ll be surrounded by the rare and beautiful flora and fauna of the National Park.

Dog Sledding in Gauja National Park

One of the most spectacular winter time experiences you could ever imagine, brought to life in Gauja National Park.

You’ll even be able to climb up to the observation tower and see this fairytale forest from above, right down the valley of Daugava river. A beautiful Baltic adventure awaits.
