The best time to visit Kaunata is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and ideal for outdoor activities.
During this period, the average daily temperatures range from 18°C to 22°C, with plenty of sunshine. This makes it superb for enjoying the natural beauty of Lake Rāzna, often called the "Latgale Sea." You can easily spend your days swimming, boating, or simply relaxing by the shore. The longer daylight hours also allow for more exploration of the surrounding Rāzna National Park.
Couples looking for a peaceful getaway will appreciate Kaunata in early autumn, particularly September. The temperatures are still pleasant, around 12°C to 16°C, and the landscape begins to transform with beautiful autumnal colours. It's a lovely time for scenic drives around the lake and enjoying quiet walks along the less crowded trails.
For those interested in winter sports or a cosy, snow-filled experience, late December to February offers the best conditions. The area is typically covered in snow, and the lake freezes over, providing opportunities for ice fishing or cross-country skiing.
