Pähni forest study trail (3 km)

The trail starts and ends at Pähni Visitor Centre. The forest landscape here is characterised by small wetland areas and the curvy flooded meadow. Most forests are old fresh boreal forests.

Starting and ending at the red house by the Pähni visitor centre in Võru County, this 3 km loop wanders through gently rolling forest with small bogs and a winding river valley. Most of the woodland is old and semi-natural, so it is rich in species; if you walk quietly you may come close to wild animals, and birds and insects are everywhere. Fifteen stops introduce tree species, heritage sites and animal signs, and about 200 metres of boardwalk and three shelters help along the way. Bilberries and mushrooms grow beside the path.
