Mežakaķis Park at Mežaparks

Climbing and crawling up the ropes, pulleys and spider-nets is a fine way to whip all inhibitions physically and mentally, and certainly, loads of fun. The place is Mežakaķis in Riga-Mežaparks, operating in summer months from May 1 to September 30.

This amusement park in the green suburb of Riga has a variety of obstacle courses with various levels of difficulty. An excellent outing for the kiddies, their parents, corporate collectives or just a group of friends. Basically the park is designed for one and all. Each of the obstacle courses begins and winds up on the ground; the finale a downhill stretch on a special roller.
