About half of Estonia is covered with forests, making it one of the greenest countries in Europe. In addition, around 6-8% of Estonia’s land area is covered by bogs, creating a truly unique and diverse natural landscape.

2. Five Seasons

Estonia experiences not just winter, spring, summer and autumn but also a magical “fifth season” in Soomaa National Park. During the flood season, forests and meadows turn into navigable waterways. It’s a unique time for canoeing and nature photography.

3. Island Adventures

Estonia has over 2,000 islands, ranging from large populated ones like Saaremaa and Hiiumaa to tiny uninhabited gems. With so many islands, choosing where to go can be tricky. Luckily, your local friend - Hey Estonia online guide, can help you discover hidden gems and enjoy an authentic island adventure.
