8. Snowshoe hike in Valgesoo

You can take part in a snowshoe hike in the bogs of Valgesoo Landscape Protection Area. To protect the fragile bog surface and for the sake of convenience, we will use snowshoes for hiking – the guide will lead the way. The route is diverse, starting in a sandy pine grove, moving across soggy mires to a raised bog and, from there, to gigantic anthills built by the colonies of Formica in an old spruce stand. Duration: 2 hours.
