The trails introduce the various glacial landforms and lakes of different trophicity between kames. Walking along the Viitna trail you can enjoy wonderful views of the "Lake Hills" - eskers and forests.

Close to the Tallinn–Narva highway, so easy to reach even by bus, this 7 km trail at Viitna gives fine views from the crests of the 'lake hills', eskers and kames shaped by the ice sheet, down to three lakes and the forest. It starts on the north shore of Pikkjärv and visits all three lakes, with 27 points of interest explaining how the landforms arose and which forests grow on them. If time is short, a 2.5 km circuit round Pikkjärv is possible. In wet weather the steep esker slopes and the boardwalk by Lake Nabudi get slippery.
