Have you ever slept in a truck? The new tourist attraction in Jelgava Region – “Nākotnes parks” – offers such an unusual opportunity. For adventure seekers and romance lovers, the park’s picturesque apple orchard “Apple Trees and Bees” offers a unique place to stay overnight – a well-equipped GAZ-63 truck.
“People crave unforgettable moments and new experiences, which is why more and more of them choose unusual places and accommodation for their holidays. At the same time, travellers are becoming more demanding! We are letting our imagination run wild and this time we are offering something special for couples and anyone who is ready for something unprecedented. We knew straight away that the Gazik would not be just a car. It quickly became an exclusive accommodation for couples. But we haven’t forgotten about the others – we have a cosy cottage for a family and a holiday home for a larger group,” says Kārlis Dandzbergs, the owner of the apple orchard “Abels and Bees”, together with designer Andris Karičkins, who designed the gazik.
The GAZ-63 was produced in 1964 at the Gorky Automobile Plant. Thanks to the 4 x 4 wheel formula, the Gazik can negotiate heavy mud, steep gradients and even 50 cm of snow. Once an army vehicle – a liaison car with a crew of three – it now opens its doors as an extraordinary accommodation in the heart of the Apple Orchard, guaranteeing its guests a place of solitude and peace. And the GAZ-63 is still in working order!
Surprise a loved one!
Located in the apple orchard of the inspiration and adventure place “Future Park”, GAZ-63 is set up as a romantic accommodation for couples. It has an oversized bed (160 x 200 cm), a mini-fridge and a renovated kitchen table and bench, which have served this purpose since the Soviet era. Electricity, drinking water, a kettle and fruit are provided for guests’ convenience. For a romantic getaway, the motorhome has built-in speakers to play music.
The gazebo has a terrace where you can have a meal, enjoy the peace of the apple orchard, engage in conversation or, on the contrary, keep quiet and enjoy the orchestra of nature. A barbecue and charcoal are also available. A shelter will protect you from inclement weather. And you can enjoy your stay in the gazika in all seasons and in all weathers, as the vehicle is equipped with both heating and ventilation!
Whether it’s a date, a wedding anniversary or a birthday surprise, a night in the gazika will be a special occasion and one you’ll always remember! You can book the Gazika from 19 July on Airbnb, or by calling or emailing: +371 25713949, info@nakotnesparks.lv. Price per night for two persons from EUR 70.

“Other accommodation options are also available at Future Park. The house “Pūpoli”, suitable for up to 11 people, is located on a beautiful plain with views into the distance. It is decorated in an urban vintage style, combining the modern and contemporary with industrial design.
The hexagonal holiday house “Ceriņi” with all amenities for 4 persons is located in the apple orchard area near the children’s playground, so it will be ideal for families with children. The apple orchard also has several picnic areas, a gazebo and hammocks for children and adults to relax in.

The apple orchard covers an area of 7.4 hectares and has more than 10 different apple varieties. “Nākotnes Park is located in the middle of Latvia, in the village of Nākotne, only 18 km from Jelgava and 65 km from Riga.
