Karosta paths summary

Karosta is a place full of paths. They can be found near the buildings and in the forests. What make Karosta paths interesting is that the town plan is somewhat “broken”, because there are houses that are not used or even ruins. People starts to use different kind of routes to go to places they want, they can for example walk through a house ruin, make it a new way of going to a certain location. They might even stop using an official, paved street if there is more logical route to the place.


Karosta has been a war harbour and is a part of Liepaja city. Since the Soviet military left Karosta, there have been a lot of abandoned buildings and infrastucture.

The paths were mapped in summer 2003.
