See photos (5) This nature trail, which is 7.7 km long, connects the highest point in Western Estonia, Hiiemägi Hill (106 m), and the Loosalu bog island. Take 4 to 5 hours to cover the entire trail.
Don’t forget your wellies and be careful when moving between the hollows. A boardwalk will lead you to ‘Little Loosalu Lake’. The trail comes to an end at the foot of Reevimägi Hill (99 m).
Interesting to know:
Here, you will see Estonia’s largest bog lake – Lake Loosalu.
The pike and perch that live in the lake are black in colour and taste of peat mud.
The pine forests around the bogs are criss-crossed by elk paths.
Camping area
We recommend that you drive to Vana-Kaiu (i.e. Kaiu manor) and then follow the signs to the nature trail. It is 6 km from the manor to the start of the nature trail.
