Poruni hiking trail (5 km)
Amenities.
Foot-and-mouth, a severe animal disease, is currently circulating in Europe and also poses a threat to animals in Estonia. Your help is needed to prevent animals here – sheep, cattle, goats, and other ungulates – from becoming infected. We ask that you please follow some important recommendations.
The 10 km (back and forth) Poruni hiking trail runs along the banks of the Poruni River to the Narva River and returns to the starting point from there. 12 information boards have been placed along the trail. They introduce the nature of the region, the floodplain forest, native broad-leaved forest, draw attention to the geological formations sometimes exposed on the banks of the river and the military history that characterizes the region.
Poruni hiking trail is marked with blue painted rectangles on trees and metal signposts.
