Elistvere study trail

Study trail

The Elistvere study trail is located on the territory of the animal park. This approximately 1 km round trip trail offers insights into local wildlife and habitats, with information boards and viewing platforms along the way. The first 350 metres from the trail start to the observation tower are wheelchair and stroller accessible, with a boardwalk width of 123 cm.

The boardwalk leads to Lake Elistvere, where there is an observation tower for monitoring waterfowl.
Along the study trail, you can also admire land art – installations created using local nature, landforms, and materials.

The study trail is accessible to animal park visitors during opening hours (an admission fee for visiting the animal park is required).

Picnic area

There is a picnic area close to the animal park that also accommodates larger groups. When in the animal park, you can access the picnic area from behind the reindeer enclosure. There are tables, benches, and covered fireplaces there for grilling and eating.

Moving on from the picnic area, you arrive at the Elistvere campfire site.
