Attention!

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 campfire sites are on the bank of Lake Pesujärv. It is a popular swimming place. There is a boardwalk leading to the lakeside and a convenient pier for taking a dip. The Jõuga lake system comprises four lakes that emerged as a result of the melting of loose ice: Lake Jõuga Pesujärv, Lake Jõuga Linajärv, Lake Jõuga Liivjärv and Lake Armise. Several rare plant and animal species can be found in the lakes, e.g. the common water frog.
Parking

Parking for 15 cars.

Amenities

Asphalt parking lot, 6 covered outdoor fireplaces, 6 picnic tables with roof, dry toilet/inva DC, water well, floating bridge, stairs with viewing platform

Wheelchair Accessibility

From the parking lot, a 1.2 m wide boardwalk leads down to the beach, right out to the floating bridge. There is a small pocket halfway through. Since the boardwalk is quite steep due to the natural conditions, we recommend visiting it with a help. You can reach the two picnic tables from the parking lot along a boardwalk, but a natural path leads to the dry toilet.

Camping

The maximum number of tents (for 4) allowed is 14.

Berries-mushrooms

Bilberries, wild strawberries, chanterelles, milk-caps

Sights

Jõuga burial mounds, 2 lakes with sandy shores (Lake Pesujärv, Lake Liivjärv), a short walking trail around the lakes
