The trail starts in a pine forest at the edge of a mire. There the Suuretüki observation tower offers an excellent view on the Laeva mire. The trail continues along a boardwalk across the Laeva mire, which is well known for its good cranberry sites.

This 4.7 km loop in the Alam-Pedja Nature Reserve leads through heath pine forest to the edge of Laeva bog, where the 12-metre Suuretüki tower gives a superb view over the surroundings. From there, boardwalk and earth path alternate across mire at different stages of development and across bog islands; 3.5 km of the loop runs through bog and forest and 1.2 km along the Laeva–Palupõhja gravel road. Eleven boards introduce bog nature and heritage. The narrow 47 cm boardwalk is covered with mesh for grip. No vehicles are allowed.
