We are always thinking about our guests’ comfort and are pleased to offer new leisure and entertainment options.

If you’re tired of walking—or, on the contrary, tired of spending the day behind the wheel—here’s a great option: a bicycle!

Plan your upcoming holiday the way you like it: take a bike trip from our campsite to the forest or the lake.

We have two electric bikes available, and regular bicycle rental is also possible.

Not sure your legs can handle it? No problem—we can arrange a motorcycle adventure trip wherever you want!

Take advantage of our offer, bring your friends, and set off on an adventure!

We look forward to seeing you!

The first big surprise at our campsite

Mon, 25 Aug 2025 14:51:00 +0000

For adventurous travelers seeking unique experiences, our campsite proved to be the perfect destination—even accommodating impressive travel vehicles like those of the Madventure explorers. We were delighted to welcome international overland guests and share with them the vibrant local culture and traditions. Together, we enjoyed a memorable boat trip on Lake Chamo and spent the evening by the campfire, exchanging songs and stories in a warm, friendly atmosphere.

We continue to develop and welcome our guests.

Over the past six months, despite several obstacles, we have made significant progress in expanding and beautifying our campsite. We will have soon 4 bungalows (family tents) which will be ready with a comfortable tent house shower and toilet inside. And what else?There will be a top-viewed bar on the top of our container kitchen.

A lot of thought is given to the comfort of visitors and they appreciate it. There are many very positive reviews about our vacation spot. We also get a lot of very good suggestions on how to improve our infrastructure.

I should be added - many thanks to Zebra Guesthouse for good partnership and support in my business! Also, Thank you Indra Lielkaja for creating my website and for being there with advice and understanding!
