15 km is one way, back and forth will be 30 km. The trail starts at Vastseliina Episcopal Castle ruins and goes along the primeval valley of the Piusa River to Lindora village on Võru–Obinitsa road. In addition to nice outcrops there are several sites of old mills along the trail.

This one-way trail of 15 km (30 km there and back) starts by the ruins of the Vastseliina bishop's castle and follows the primeval valley of the Piusa river north to Lindora village on the Võru–Obinitsa road. Besides fine sandstone outcrops, including the Härma Mäemine müür or Keldri wall, the highest sandstone cliff in Estonia, you pass several old mill sites. Boards explain the sights, and wooden signs mark the route. If you start from the north, park at the Lindora or Härma campfire site. Autumn colour in the valley makes this a superb walk.
