Accommodation
We will camp in Village Vilushi, a beautiful place with unique photogenic views on two meanders of the river. The length of each meander is about four to six kilometers, but the distance between them is two to three kilometers. From this base, we will be able to reach all of the eight meanders of Daugavas Loki Nature Park; which is included in the Latvian National UNESCO World Heritage list.
Program
In the beautiful base of Village Vilushi, we will be introduced to singing, yoga practices, meditation, outdoor survival basic skills, orientation, fire-craft, and camp-craft. One day in the week is reserved for a fantastic kayaking trip and another day to a visit to Daugavpils Mark Rothko Art Centre; a famous Latvian painter. In the evening, we have walk assignments and practices, fishing, and storytelling around the fire.
