Great trail (our very first Wikloc experience). Beautiful nature. Biked with wife in mid-July. Found heaps of chantarelli on trail itself, as well as wild strawberries and blueberries :) We did route in reverse, and had some problems locating "correct" trail from Zvarte rock back to Kārļamuiža, most likely due to an overgrown path. Not a big issue for us, as we are experienced orienteering runners, but for less able Wikiloc users, it might be slightly tricky. Big thanks to jsteps for posting this lovely trail !
