Ezeriņi

• Ezeriņi is a holiday-home cooperative; the name Ozerki is also used.
• The “Egļukalns” ski base is located in the immediate vicinity.
• Lake Dziļais is located in the immediate vicinity of Ezeriņi.
• Lake Svente is among the ten deepest lakes in Latvia.
• Svente Nature Park is a Natura 2000 nature park and includes Lake Svente as well as the Sventes ezera salas nature reserve.

The immediate proximity to the “Egļukalns” ski base is a specific point of reference when choosing accommodation in Ezeriņi. The base has three slalom slopes with lengths of 200 metres, approximately 250 metres and 220 metres. The figure of approximately 250 metres remains an estimate.

Lake Dziļais is also located in the immediate vicinity. Other destinations, however, have their own spatial information: the Svente lakeside trail runs along Lake Svente and is several kilometres from Jaunsvente Park. This distance information does not describe the location of Ezeriņi, but rather the distance between the lakeside trail and the park.

Svente Nature Park connects Lake Svente with the Sventes ezera salas nature reserve. The lake is among the ten deepest lakes in Latvia and gives the destination a distinct landscape theme. For walks, a reconstructed network of walking paths with benches, picnic areas, gazebos, wooden footbridges and viewing platforms is available at Lake Svente.

The 4-kilometre Egļukalns forest nature trail is also located in Svente Nature Park. The nature park belongs to the protected landscape area “Augšzeme”. Another type of trail is offered by the nature trail in the Jaunsvente manor park: it is unmarked and runs over wooden footbridges. When planning your day, you should take these different trail descriptions into account rather than inferring a particular level of difficulty or walking time from the facilities available.

The “Svente Lake Loop” cycle route (786) is a circuit. It can be started or ended at any point. This allows flexibility in personal route planning, without specifying a particular starting point or fixed order. The Svente lakeside trail also provides orientation around the lake; its location several kilometres from Jaunsvente Park should be considered when combining different destinations for a day trip.

At the Sudmaļi hillfort there is an equipped rest area and an information board. The archaeological cultural layer is up to 1.8 metres thick. Archaeological material indicates that the inhabitants of the Sudmaļi hillfort belonged to the Brushed Pottery culture in the 1st millennium BC. Those interested in history can incorporate this information into their travel planning alongside the destination’s nature and trail offerings.

The military vehicle collection displays the BRDM-2 and BRDM-1 armoured reconnaissance vehicles. Some exhibits can be started and used for demonstrations. The military vehicle museum’s collection also includes objects found on former battlefields. The military vehicle museum is located next to the “Sventes muiža” hotel; this specific spatial relationship is relevant for orientation on site, but says nothing about other accommodation in Ezeriņi.

Jaunsvente Manor Park was laid out at the end of the 19th century. Together with the unmarked nature trail over wooden footbridges, it forms another cultural and landscape-focused highlight.

If you would like to compare Ezeriņi with other destinations in the catalogue, you can also find Laucesa, Daugavpils, Svente, Mīšteļi, Šengeida, Višķi, Saliena and Vabole.
