Lake Stropi
Lielais Stropu ezers
A forest lake northeast of the city, with a beach, trails and cycle paths. Locals come here to swim and walk in summer.
Big Lake Stropi lies in a pine forest about 5 km northeast of the city center. It is Daugavpils' most popular leisure spot. The lakeshore has a sandy beach, a lifeguard station, wooden boardwalks and forest fitness trails, and in summer you can swim and row. Tram 3 runs to the terminus right by the lake, making it quick and easy to reach. Admission is free. It is ideal for a half-day of relaxation if you are spending two or three days in town.
