Overview

What could be more mysterious than a bog? Only an abandoned old manor. On this tour we will visit both the manor and the bog, as well as one of the largest and most beautiful waterfalls in Estonia.

Begin your tour with a visit to Viru Bog, one of Estonia’s most fascinating natural landscapes, shrouded in mystery and unique beauty. Learn about its plant and wildlife, listen to the silence, and admire the patterns of mosses and bog lakes from the observation tower.

Next, step back in time at Kolga Manor, one of the largest and most historically important manor complexes in Estonia. Founded in the 13th century as the governing estate of a Cistercian monastery, it later belonged to the noble families of De la Gardie and von Stenbock. Now empty and dilapidated, the estate complex and its surroundings create an atmosphere of mystery and past. Learn about the estate's history and hear some ghost stories.

Finally, visit Jagala Waterfall and enjoy scenic views of the cascading water.
