Riisa õpperada

Of the four bog trails we've tried in Estonia (2 in Soomaa, 2 in/near Laheema), this one's our favourite :)

Two small pools for a refreshing swim, quite private on the weekday mornin and afternoon that we went. Wheel chair accessible until around the first pool.

If you expect the observation tower to reach over the tree tops you will not be disappointed. Though you need to consider the height of the trees around you ;)

Short trail but very nice views and a lot of bogs. I recommend visiting during the work days, weekends are crowdy.

Very nice place for walking. The trail is in perfect condition. They renovated the trail in spring 2018. You can even go there with a wheelchair (part of the trail 1.2 km). There is a possibility to go swimming and at the beginning of the trail there are toilets. There is a parking lot for about 10 cars but it is not hard to find a place for parking if the parking lot is full.

If you need to choose one place to visit in Estonia, come to Soomaa!!!! I've traveled a lot and was still amazed by the beauty and uniqueness of this place:)
That said, this is the most touristy of the trails. Drive 5km further south and go to 'Ingatsi õpperada' instead. Or do them both:) and 'Hüpassaare õpperada' as well if you've got the whole day:) amazing places!!!!

Nice walk, well maintained. I personally prefer the Ingatsi trail but this one is nice too. On the plus side: this one is partially wheelchair accessible.

We visited this trail after Ingatsi trail. This trail is accessible by trolleys (around 2km, walking there and back, not whole trail). There are two places to swim and quite nice nature to observe. Totally around 5km of quite easy walk. Since this is more popular, you can also expect more people there. Otherwise - well spent time in the nature.

Amazing trail through bog and little stop at the river

Always a nice easy hicking trail

Good place for a nature walk

Super!

Walk takes about 1h-1.5h to complete. The nature is untouched, there is parking space and free toilet.

Excellent facilities. There was 1 ight problem: many walking paths, none of them labelled.

Five kilometers long trail in beautiful bog landscape. Accessible for wheel chairs!

Marvelous. Especially: black water swamp lakes you can swim in (infrastctures built). Cold as hell but denitelly worth it.

Beautiful exciting place!

Very beautiful nature

Rada algab maantee ääres paiknevast väiksest parklast. Kohe raja alguses on WC (olemas on ka inva-WC).

Raja esimesed 1,2 km on lai laudtee, mis on läbitav ka lapsevankri ja ratastooliga.

Rada kulgeb ringina läbi raba. Rajal on ka vaatetorn.

Meeldiv jalutuskäik rahulikus ja kaunis looduses.
