Venemäe campsite’s observation tower

The observation tower is located in the Venemäe campsite. The tower offers a view of the surrounding forests and the Jussi moor.

At the Venemäe campsite in northern Kõrvemaa, a 19-metre metal tower with a platform at 15.3 metres stands on Venemäe hill. During the Soviet era the hilltop was the fire-control post of an army training range, and the view from the tower takes in the result: Jussi heath, an open sandy landscape created by the fires of military exercises, and the forests around it. A marked path of 1.2 km there and back leads from the tower to Lake Mustjärv. The campsite has room for up to ten tents.
