Western Saaremaa Sights
Your journey begins as we depart from Kuressaare, where we are welcomed by the sight of the town’s Long Bridge, one of Estonia’s largest and oldest limestone bridges.
As we continue, you’ll encounter the “OO Boulder”- natural formation linked to local legend.
Next, we’ll visit Lake Karujärv, the oldest lake in Saare County. With its sandy bottom, it offers an ideal setting for relaxation and camping.
We’ll also pass by Pidula Manor, a historic landmark with strong Baltic German roots.
Our next stop is the Odalätsi Springs, believed to be the footprints of Old Nick himself. These springs are renowned for their reputed healing and rejuvenating properties.
Then, we’ll visit Kihelkonna St. Michael’s Church, built in the late 13th century. Originally towerless and even served as a lighthouse for a time. Just a short walk away, you’ll find one of Europe’s few free-standing belfries. Nearby is also one of Saaremaa’s largest cemeteries, established after burials within churchyards were prohibited.
Finally, our tour concludes at the Mihkli Farm Museum, where you’ll be transported back in time to experience traditional Estonian rural life.
