Rebastemäe study trail (1.5 km)

The trail is situated in the oldest and highest place in the entire western Estonia, on the Kõpu peninsula.

On the Kõpu peninsula, the oldest and highest part of all western Estonia, this 1.5 km loop climbs past two lookout towers. Some 8,000 years ago only a square-kilometre islet stood here above the open sea. The path leads through heath pine on old dunes, a species-rich broadleaf forest beneath the ancient shoreline step and a natural old spruce wood with windthrow, where the evergreen dwarf shrub one-flowered wintergreen grows. Kaplimägi, at 63.5 m the second-highest hill on Hiiumaa, has a folk tale about a lost chapel. Several staircases and two platforms are on the route.
