Description:
Brocēni Forest Park is a nice place to enjoy active recreation activities, with walking paths to learn about the forest, playground areas for children and picnic sites. The park is accessible to parents with baby-strollers and people in wheelchairs. The overall length of the paths is 3 km, however the route may be adjusted as one wishes. There are also 2 open-air tracks at the park – the high track for the bravest, installed 8 m above the ground, and the low track for the youngest visitors. Open-air tracks are free of charge.
