Hirmuste campsite

A campsite on a splendid sandy beach in the shade of coastal pine forest. A cosy place to admire spectacular sunsets over the sea.

Hirmuste campsite sits on a sandy beach on the northern side of the Kõpu peninsula in western Hiiumaa, about a kilometre from Hirmuste village. Coastal pines shade the tents, and because the beach faces north-west, this is one of the best places on the island to watch the sun go down into the sea. Behind the shore lies the Kõpu Nature Reserve, with old spruce and pine groves with a rich variety of plant and animal life. The Hirmuste hiking trail starts right at the campsite and leads to open views, and the short 1.3 km Hirmuste study trail is close by.
