Exploring the ’Land of Bogs,’ Soomaa with its meandering rivers, floodplain forests and endless bog lands is a truly special experience

Water is all over in Soomaa - offering extraordinary views in many different ways: mist over the bog fields early in the morning, water until the eye can see in the flood season, picturesque forests surrounded by water on the floodplains, meandering rivers criss-crossing the landscape. And all this is there be explored in funny and special ways such as walking on water that is snowshoeing on bogs in any season, canoeing in traditional dugout canoes or exploring the park’s wilderness from special boardwalks. As scarcely inhabited by people, Soomaa leaves today space for wildlife: in early spring and late autumn the call of wolves is rather a regular sound to be heard and there is chance to track its rich wildlife throughout the year incuding beaver, lynx, elk or wolf.
