Vilsandi National Park Visitor Center

The Visitor Centre of Vilsandi National Park is located near the western coast of Saaremaa island, in an ancient Loona manor complex in Rootsiküla village.

The Vilsandi National Park visitor centre is housed in the old manor complex of Loona on the west coast of Saaremaa, reached by a tree-lined drive. The manor's history goes back to the 15th century and the ensemble is under heritage protection, but the place is far older still: a Neolithic village stood here, an archaeological site from the 2nd millennium BC. Inside, an exhibition introduces Vilsandi National Park, with its islands, coasts and seabirds, along with a permanent display of fossils from Saaremaa's limestone. From here, trails lead out to the coast, Viidumäe nature reserve is nearby, and boat trips go to Vilsandi island.
