See photos (6) Would you like to listen to the sounds of the forest or hear your own thoughts better in silence? Then come to Võru County to a fir forest by the RMK Pähni Nature Centre where you'll find forest megaphones – three gigantic wooden megaphones with a diameter of three metres, each named Ruup.
Ruup invites you to read forest sounds and offers hikers a possibility to rest their feet and their minds. Here, you can sit, sleep, think and listen. You can select between a small and a large view, depending on which direction you look in the Ruup. Ruup is an open library with only one book – the nature.
At the 30th kilometre of Võru-Valga highway (highway No. 67), turn left at the Matsi intersection (road sign 'RMK Pähni looduskeskus 6'). Drive for 6 km until you reach Pähni village. At the end of the gravel road, turn right at the first intersection and drive along the road until you see a road sign 'Metsa kõlakojad' ('Forest megaphones') by the road.
