Blokarting (Land-Sailing) at Uuskalda Sports and Holiday Village

Blokarting is becoming more and more prominent in the world and Estonia’s first, almost 1-kilometre long blokart land-sailing track has been built in Uuskalda.
Blokart is a 3-wheel kart which consists of a frame, back-wheels, a turning front wheel, a steering-wheel, rigging and a sheet. The available sail sizes are 3, 4 and 5.5 m2, the suitable winds start at 6 m/s. The best time from the point of view of the wind is from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., instructions are always given before the ride. The rules applicable to ordinary sailing apply here as well. You should wear sporty clothes suitable for the weather conditions. If possible, you should wear a helmet.

Kayaking in Haapsalu

The Gulf Tagalaht and its surroundings in Haapsalu are an ideal place for kayaking. It’s also a great place to see many different bird species. Kayaking in autumn is a spectacle in itself because you can watch the migration of geese and common cranes. On the other hand, kayaking in summer is very pleasant in the sun. Often the water is too shallow even for kayaks, fortunately the route can be changed according to the group and water level. In addition, various sights can be seen, for example Haapsalu Kuursaal, different harbours, Suur Viik Bay, old Kalakombinaat, etc.

At the beginning of the kayaking trip, we always talk about water safety and teach basic paddling skills.

Haapsalu Adventure Park

Haapsalu Adventure Park is located in the beautiful Paralepa Park Forest (2 km from the city centre).

There is a children’s park where the trails are low and safe. Adults can find themselves descending and climbing from a height of 14 metres. All trails end with a zip-line descent.
We offer adventure opportunities all year round, depending on the weather conditions.
We offer joy and adventures for young and old. Bring your family, friends, or classmates!
Adventures are in the air!

Haeska birdwatching tower

The Haeska birdwatching tower on the north shore of Matsalu Bay is the best one in Europe – the coastal meadows and shallow bay are a popular spot among migratory birds.
Many species have been recorded in the vicinity of the Haeska birdwatching tower and Finnish birdwatchers have also set a European record – 128 different bird species were seen from the tower in one day. The birdwatching tower and recreation area are situated on a private land and therefore staying on this object is allowed from sunrise to sunset.
