GALLERY

 

Klajumi ranch dates back almost 100 years. Nowadays the older and younger generations farm together here, safeguarding the local heritage and taking care of the natural environment. The ranch is located in the Daugava River Valley Nature Park, close to the Latvian-Belarussian border. Klajumi offers peaceful horse-riding tours in beautiful scenery on well-kept and well-trained horses of Latvian, Lithuanian and Belarussian breeds. Guests with no previous riding experience are welcome.

Accommodation is in traditional-style log cottages. The ranch is a holder of the national eco certificate for rural tourism accommodation, a member of the European Network of Regional Culinary Heritage, and holds a Latvian Heritage award for maintaining horse-breeding traditions.
