EuroVelo 10 Baltic Sea Cycle Route

Estonia

EuroVelo 10 follows the Estonian National Route 1 for 981 km along the Baltic coast. Completed back in 2001, this stunning route takes in the astoundingly beautiful scenery of the Lahemaa National Park close to the Russian border and the city of Narva, where the Soviet Union has let visible traces. Then it crosses the medieval capital city Tallinn, a true fairy tale, before taking a ferry to the islands of Muhu, Saaremaa and Hiiumaa where you will come face to face with Estonia’s rich natural environment. Before continuing to Latvia, you will still visit Pärnu, a popular summer holiday resort with many hotels, restaurants, and large beaches.
