Its sights include the high wooded sandy eskers, which developed when Lake Peipus receded, and the mystic bog islands in Rüütli bog, which developed from the sediments accumulated at the end of the Ice Age. The transition from sandy eskers to the mire is unexpected, this kind of varied landscape offers a pleasant change for hikers.

Sights

Different forest growth types, sandbanks formed of the recession of Lake Peipus, raised bog flora, bog islands, bog pool, “money pit”

Amenities

3 campfire sites, 5 dry toilets, shelter, conical tent, 2 forest huts, observation tower on the upland. The trail is marked with blue and white blazes and symbols on brown posts

Parking

Parking for 10 to 15 cars at the start of the hiking trail.

Additional information

The trail starts from an old Lõppe sand quarry by Liivamäe parking lot. From there the trail runs along high sand banks and ends with a boardwalk across the Rüütli bog (Muraka nature reserve) neat the Alliku village. You can choose the shorter trail (1.5 km) in the Rüütli bog, which forms a section of the 8 km trail. The trail is marked with blue and white blazes on trees.
