Cape Kolka, Latvia (Мыс Колка, Латвия)
Cape Kolka is the most pronounced horn on the shores of Latvia, and it is where the waves from two seas clash – the open Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Riga. During the bird migration season, dozens of thousands of birds fly over the cape, and this is the best place to start a visit to Slitere National Park.
Мыс Колка – самый выраженный мыс на побережье Латвии, возле которого встречаются волны двух морей – открытого Балтийского моря и Рижского залива. В период миграции птиц здесь можно увидеть десятки тысяч пернатых. Также это место, откуда начинается путешествие по национальному парку Слитере.

Discover the Nature in Slitere National Park!
Two irreconcilable Europe's - Western Europe and Eastern Europe -- are now history. Both sisters were fierce enemies; they fought the Cold War and separated from each other with the Iron Curtain. Times changed, the Cold War ended, the Iron Curtain fell. People saw what the Curtain had covered; wild nature where elsewhere already rare animals, plants and habitats found shelter -- on ground, in water, in the air.
This hundred kilometres long delicate preservable land strip from Barents Sea till Black Sea now is called European Green Belt, but coast of the Baltic Sea from Nida
till Kolka is called Latvian Green Belt. Slītere National Park is splendid buckle of this belt with rough diamonds -- the sea, forests and swamps.
This movie is about them - animals of Slītere National Park. The wild nature of Latvia is their home. Let's give them the chance to live there!

Vērosim dabu Slīteres nacionālajā parkā!
Par vēsturi kļuvušas divas nesamierināmas Eiropas -- Rietumeiropa un Austrumeiropa. Abas māsas bija sīvas pretinieces, starp tām valdīja Aukstais karš, tās nošķīrās viena no otras ar dzelzs priekškaru. Laiki mainījās, Aukstais karš beidzās, dzelzs priekškars krita. Un cilvēki ieraudzīja to, ko priekškars bija apsedzis -- savvaļas dabu, kurā patvērumu raduši citviet jau par retumu kļuvuši augi un dzīvnieki, un to dzīvotnes -- uz zemes, ūdenī, gaisā.
Simtiem kilometru garo, saudzējamo dabas joslu no Barenca jūras līdz Melnajai un Adrijas jūrai tagad dēvē par Eiropas Zaļo jostu, bet Baltijas jūras piekrasti no Nidas līdz Kolkai par Latvijas Zaļo jostu. Slīteres nacionālais parks ir krāšņa šīs jostas sprādze, rotāta ar neslīpētiem dimantiem -- jūru, mežiem, purviem.
Diskā skatāmās filmas varoņi ir Slīteres nacionālā parka dzīvnieki. Latvijas nepārveidotā daba ir to mājas. Ļausim tiem dzīvot savās mājās!

A national park is a park in use for conservation purposes. Often it is a reserve of natural, semi-natural, or developed land that a sovereign state declares or owns. Although individual nations designate their own national parks differently, there is a common idea: the conservation of wild nature for posterity and as a symbol of national pride.
An international organization, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and its World Commission on
Protected Areas, has defined National Park as its Category II type of protected areas.
While this type of national park had been proposed previously, the United States established the first public park or pleasuring-ground for the benefit and enjoyment of the people, Yellowstone National Park, in 1872. Although Yellowstone was not officially termed a national park in its establishing law, it was always termed such in practice and is widely held to be the first and oldest national park in the world. Some would say that the first official
national park to be designated as such at its creation was Mackinac Island, legislated in 1875. Australia's Royal
National Park, established in 1879, was the world's third official national park. In 1895 ownership of Mackinac Island was transferred to the State of Michigan as a state park and national park status was consequently lost. As a result Australia's Royal National Park is by some considerations the second oldest national park now in existence.
The largest national park in the world meeting the IUCN definition is the Northeast Greenland National Park, which was established in 1974. According to the IUCN, 6,555 national parks worldwide met its criteria in 2006. IUCN is still discussing the parameters of defining a national park.
National parks are almost always open to visitors. Most national parks provide outdoor recreation and camping opportunities as well as classes designed to educate the public on the importance of conservation and the natural wonders of the land in which the national park is located.

Mazbānīša dabas takas iestaigāšana
Slīteres nacionālajā parkā tapusi jauna dabas taka velobraucējiem un kājāmgājējiem. Tā ved pa šaursliežu dzelzceļa stigu no Kolkas pagasta Mazirbes līdz Sīkragam. Līdz 20.gs. 60. gadiem te brauca vilciens, kuru dēvēja par Mazbānīti. Tā lielās nozīmēs dēļ kurzemnieku dzīvē tas tika saukts arī par Ziemeļkurzemes ekspresi.

Bicycle Tour Latvia
This time we rented bicycles in Riga and took a train to the border with Estonia: Valga. From there, we zig zagged back to Riga.
Latvia is sparsely populated and has a lot of wild forests, but the Gauja National Park is the prettiest region we cycled through.
We also visited the national song and dance celebration, a special one in 5 years event. Tickets are nearly impossible to get, we had a Latvian friend who helped us (thanks Reinis!), so we were lucky to be able to experience this unique celebration.
