When
walking on the hiking trails in the Sakala recreation area, you can feel the
aura of the native forest inhabitants. The bogs, marshes and virgin forests
untouched by intense human activity are an ideal place to contemplate your
roots, commune with forest fairies, explore the traces of forest people’s
activities and find your place in nature’s circle of life. Simplicity,
isolation and being alone are what make the forest trails so attractive.
Camping out by a fire accompanied by the howling of a wolf during the autumn,
waking up on a nippy March morning hearing the cooing of a wood grouse and
grouse from your forest cabin, swimming in the rejuvenating bog lake or a taking
a daytime hiking journey on the sandy hills of pine forests rich in ozone offer
you an ideal escape from your hectic everyday life.
Sakala recreation area is divided into two – the southern Paanikse area and
northern Kabala area.
