Selisoo hiking trail (4 km)
Ida-Viru County, Alutaguse National Park
Restoration work on the water regime of Selisoo has begun and will continue until the spring of 2025. As part of this, the decayed boardwalk near Suurlauka will also be reconstructed. The old boardwalk will be removed in September, and the new one is expected to be completed by the end of November. We ask you to be cautious in the work area and, if possible, avoid planning visits to the trail in the vicinity of the work.
The trail introduces different marsh types, rich vegetation, and numerous pools and wet patches of different sizes, which form scenic wetland systems. The pavilion on the trail provides shelter for hikers.
