Section 6. Līgatne - Cēsis.
The trail passes through areas rich in natural heritage and specially protected forests. There are both slope and ravine forests formed on steep hills, as well as old or naturally boreal, mostly coniferous forests characteristic of the North, which are important for cavity nesters such as white-backed, grey and black woodpeckers. Alluvial forests, which form on nutrient-rich soils of river sediments and can be flooded periodically, can be seen on the banks of the Amata River. In winter, the white-throated dipper, a dark brown bird with bright white breast, which lives near running water and dives for food, can be observed near Amata.
