The trail runs in the largest bog of Saaremaa, where different development stages of the mire can be observed. A popular legend goes that in the bog lake of Koigi a treasure was once buried, and it is guarded by spirits who occasionally reveal themselves to people.

This 5.7 km loop leads into Koigi bog, the largest raised bog on Saaremaa and the island's only one with large pools and hollows, where you can see the bog at different stages of development. A wood-chip path and boardwalk circle Lake Pikkjärv (Pitkjärv), with three platforms and a 9-metre tower for wider views. Local legend says a treasure lies buried in the bog lake, guarded by spirits that sometimes show themselves to people. A smartphone game is also available for exploring the bog.
