A wide sandy beach stretches from Sīkrags village up to Mazirbe beach which is crossed by the Mazirbe Stream. The Baltic Coastal Hiking Route leads out to the center of Mazirbe village where you can see the Liv National House. Continuing through small forest and country roads past the former Mazirbe Naval school, it winds through small coastal Liv villages: Košrags, Pitrags and then Saunags. The Liv coast is the only place where you can get to know the cultural history heritage of one of the smallest peoples in the world, the Livs. In this section, the indicating signs are in both the Latvian and Liv language.
