Lake Rae hiking trail (2.6 km or 4 km)

The Rae Lake hiking trail offers two different ways to enjoy the diverse natural environment. If you are lucky, you may spot kingfishers and signs of beaver activity while walking along the lakeshore.

By Lake Rae in Pärnu County you can choose between a 2.6 km there-and-back walk along the shore to the beaver observation tower, or a 4 km loop that continues from the tower along a varied forest road. On the lakeshore, with luck, you may glimpse the bright blue flash of a kingfisher and see the work of beavers; the longer route shows different forest types, young and old. A footbridge and suspension bridge help along the way. Depending on the season, pick mushrooms and berries or swim in the lake; autumn is especially rich in mushrooms.
