Estonian nature — slow down and wonder at a wilder life

Catch a few precious hours to reflect or lose all sense of time while taking a journey that will last a lifetime.

Voyage around Estonia's 2,317 pristine islands with the ebb and flow of the tide. Endless forests seem to have their own time zone. Awake to a symphony of birdsong. Breathe deep. Some of the cleanest air in the world will wipe away your cares. Marvel at summer sunsets that go on forever.

Estonian nature is only a heartbeat away.

Discover Estonia's six national parks

Hire a guide to lead you to the parks’ most remote corners and enthrall you with local stories, or venture out on your own by renting a bike or canoe.

Get lost in the wilderness — and then find yourself back in civilization in the blink of an eye.

Wander at will and uncover epic landscapes.

The wilderness provides an antidote to – and escape from – busy urban lives, so let Estonian nature surround you. Unearth places at your own pace.

“…the wilderness is a great place to just be. Or, in fact, to howl to the wolves, if that is your thing.”

Catherine Mack, The Telegraph
