When you are driving to Nõva from Tallinn, you will see three red buildings on your right. The smallest one in the middle is home to a tourist information centre and cafe in the summer. It sells local bread, other baked goods, cold and hot drinks, and ice cream.
You can also rest here and gather information about the area’s attractions.
Nõva is a unique place with unspoiled nature, beautiful forests, lakes, and a 15 km long sandy beach. We have nice accommodation facilities, but it is also possible to enjoy camping at the camping grounds set up by the State Forest Management Centre.

One of the most fascinating places on Vormsi is the Huitbergi limestone hill in a spruce forest in the middle of the island. The hill is over 400 million years old and a coral reef polished by ice. The limestone outcrop is covered with moss, but fossils can be seen in places where there is no moss. Protected ferns have found their place there.
The circular trail is marked with wooden signs.

The bike rental has 50 bicycles for rent. The 3- or 1-speed bikes are ideal for riding on the tracks and landscapes of Vormsi. The bicycles have luggage carriers and bottle holders and you can also use special seats for children.
Vormsi has a well-developed network of roads and bike tracks, and the traffic is much safer than in the mainland. If you ride around by bike you can have much better contact with nature and you can visit places you cannot access by car.
You can rent the bike for 1.5 hours or up to a couple of days.

Marker towers, which are normally found on the shore close to the waterline or within low water itself, were originally designed to ensure safe sailing and simplify navigation. The towers at Telise were constructed from local stone in 1910. The lower tower rises 7 metres above sea level; the upper tower 11.9 metres above sea level. The distance between them is 416 metres.
Did you know…?
*Marker towers have fallen out of use and are no longer constructed. Those that remain in Estonia have been placed under national protection.
