Student Field Trips
“Vīziju Spēks” offers educational and engaging nature-based field trips for students that combine movement, creativity, teamwork, and the acquisition of new knowledge. A structured and well-thought-out program provides students with a diverse experience, while also delighting teachers. The trips take place in Vienkoču parks, Augšlīgatne (56 km from Riga) — a scenic location where students participate in an educational orientation game “Battle of Trees and Bushes,” engage in a creative workshop, and learn about woodworking traditions under the guidance of a museum guide. The day ends with a shared picnic in a well-equipped rest area with a campfire, fostering a warm and bonding atmosphere.
