The steep shores of the River Roja are surrounded by an old-growth (virgin) forest, which is untouched by forestry activities for already 100 years. This is a biologically old forest, quite rare in Latvia, rich in plants and animals. River shore is a habitat for beavers, otters, roe deer, red deer, boars, elks, grey herons, goosanders, common goldeneyes and various other bird species. Fish like perch, river lamprey, trout, pike, roach lives in the river.

The nature trail along the river offers 3 routes of various distance – 2 km, 7 km and 15 km, each marked with a certain colour. Choose the distance you prefer and hit the road!

A number of resting areas have been installed along, with benches, tables, WC, swings, gymnastic devices, waste bins, as well as fireplace sites and tenting areas. There are also two boat piers – at resting areas in Žocene and Roja. At the start of the trail, a nice spring site has been set up, particularly used by locals to collect the water from the spring.
