Being a strict nature reserve, access to the area is regulated. It is divided into two parts, a regulated access area and a restricted access area. The access to the restricted access area is normally forbidden; only visits for scientific purposes may be conducted and requires a permit from the relevant authority. Access to the regulated access area is possible during a limited time of the year (1 June to 31 October), provided visitors are accompanied by a guide with the proper credentials. There is also an observation tower accessible without a guide located in the part of the nature reserve located in Krustpils Municipality.
