Estonia Lahemaa National Park Travel Postcard

Lahemaa National Park stretches along Estonia’s northern coast, where dense forests meet a rugged Baltic shoreline shaped by ice and sea. Pine and birch woods alternate with bogs and wetlands crossed by wooden boardwalks, creating a landscape that feels quiet, expansive, and deeply northern. The air is cool and clean, and the light—especially in summer—lingers softly over rocky beaches and moss-covered ground. Beyond its natural beauty, Lahemaa is known for its historic manor houses and small fishing villages scattered throughout the park. Gravel roads lead past centuries-old estates, stone fences, and harbors where weathered boats rest by the shore. The combination of wild nature and understated cultural heritage gives Lahemaa a calm, timeless character, offering a peaceful contrast to Estonia’s cities.
