Vienkoči Park & Woodcraft Museum
ABOUT US
Vienkoči Park – a place where nature meets history and wood crafts! Our park in Līgatne is not just a tourist attraction – it is a living workshop and a work of the heart, based on respect for nature and ancient skills. A great idea for a class excursion where history becomes an adventure and wood starts telling stories? By the Līgatne River, among miniature manor houses and nature trails, we have prepared 6 ready-made excursion packages for every class to find the one that suits them best!
