I would like to invite you to browse my photos from Kuldīga. Kuldīga is a small, charming and picturesque town in western Latvia. One of the main attractions in Kuldīga is the Ventas Rumba waterfall, which is the widest waterfall in Europe, measuring 240 meters across.

Sincerely yours

How to get there


By car
See the route planner below.
For information about driving in Latvia see Travel by car in Latvia – latvia-online.eu.

By bus
Latvia has a well-developed network of national long-distance bus connections radiating out from the Central Bus Station (Autoosta) in the capital Rīga. The buses are in good technical condition, well maintained and clean. The staff is friendly. In my experience, the driving style is prudent. The buses are usually on time. If you are satisfied with the ride, you are welcome to leave a small tip in the designated compartment on the dashboard when you get out. From Rīga to Kuldīga and vice versa, the daily cycle time is approxymately two hours or less. For more information see https://www.1188.lv/en/transport.

By train
The railway network in Latvia has been largely neglected in recent years. There are still no train connections from Rīga to Kuldīga.
