With its coast, forests and pretty towns, scenic Latvia is ideal to explore by car. Here's what you need to know before hitting the road in Latvia.
Driving in harsh winter conditions doesn't make getting around Latvia any easier, so try to avoid planning a road trip between the months of December to March. Temperatures reach lows of -13ºF (-25ºC), and there are snow, ice and fog to navigate.
In winter, be careful walking on icy paths and drive slowly on icy roads. Check with locals before you set out to see if there are any black ice spots. Snow covering major roads is plowed when necessary.
During winter, daylight hours dwindle down to just six hours per day.
Winter tires are required between 1 December and 1 March, and a special winter diesel fuel with a very high congealing point is available in winter.
To stay safe while driving in Latvia be alert, drive safely, study the map before you set out, and drive in daylight hours.
