Kiidjärve-Taevaskoja-Kiidjärve hiking trail (11,8 km)

The 11,8 km trail starts and ends next to Kiidjärve Visitor Centre and runs along the picturesque bank of Ahja River up to Saesaare weir and bridge and comes back along the ohter bank of the river.

From the Kiidjärve visitor centre in Põlva County, this 11.8 km loop follows one bank of the Ahja river upstream to the Saesaare dam and bridge, then returns along the other. The Ahja has cut deep into red Devonian sandstone here, and the trail passes a whole series of named outcrops: Sõnajalamägi, Palanumägi, Oosemägi, Laaritsamägi and Mõsumägi among them. The Sõnajala campfire site on the way allows camping. The route is marked with blue dots and is for walkers only. In autumn the red cliffs and yellow leaves above the dark river make a fine picture.
