Penijõe hiking trail (3.2–7 km)

The trail can be completed in various lengths and sections and introduces landforms characteristic of Matsalu National Park (reed beds, flood meadows and grasslands that are overflown in springs) and the local biota.

In Matsalu National Park, this trail shows the classic Matsalu habitats: reed beds, river meadows that flood each spring and open grazing land. You can walk 3.2 km there and back to the observation tower or choose loops of 4.7, 6 or 7 km past the Penijõe manor and park, the Viita wooded meadow and the national park visitor centre. Much of the way is dirt road through pasture, so dogs are not allowed, and in spring and autumn the section beyond the tower can be flooded; bring rubber boots and binoculars.
