Estonia's Natural Wonders

Estonia’s landscape is defined by deep primeval valleys, glacial lakes, and expansive peat bogs. This collection includes Rõuge Suurjärv, the country's deepest lake at 38 meters, and Lake Viljandi, situated in a scenic ancient valley. The list also features historical urban green spaces like Tartu’s Toome Hill and Pärnu’s Rannapark, alongside several significant wetland ecosystems such as Mukri and Meenikunno bogs, which represent the region's ancient post-glacial terrain.
