Where to enjoy the best views of Tallinn

Striking church spires, red-tiled roofs, and sleek glass towers make up the unique skyline of Estonia's capital. In the summer, green foliage peeks out between buildings; in winter, snow turns these red rooftops white. The streets below are a maze spanning the centuries.

Each of Tallinn's many intriguing viewpoints shows a different side of the city's personality. Whether you're looking for beautiful photos or you just want to take in the vibes of the city, these locations are perfect for a bird's-eye view.

Viewpoints around Estonia

Looking to see the country from a different perspective?

When you fly into Estonia, you'll notice that there aren't many mountains, though Estonia is home to the highest point in the Baltics at a stunning... 318 meters. The landscape may be more down-to-earth here, but the observation towers scattered around the country give you the chance to take in the view from up high. The best thing about them, though, is how the view varies throughout the day and throughout the year. Look out over glittering, frost-covered forests, see the morning mist obscure the bog below, or settle in for a colorful, springtime sunset.

A day trip outside Tallinn — or a several-day trip to hilly South Estonia — is what you'll need for the best natural views. Either way, these observation towers will not disappoint.
