Kallaste Cliff
Come and discover Kallaste Cliff – the highest limestone outcrop in Hiiumaa!
Kallaste, also known as Vahtrepa Cliff, is approximately 400 meters long and 10 meters high. An old pine forest covers the cliff, shading a forest path.
The sea lapped at the foot of the ancient coastal bank a few thousand years ago. In the southern part, one of the best-preserved biohermic reefs in Estonia, formed by corals and marine invertebrates, is exposed. Rare ferns and flowering plants grow in the crevices.
The place is associated with several stories in Estonian folklore, which creates a mystical atmosphere!
A short walk from the bank is the Kallaste Cliff rest area.
