Parika Small Lake Nature Trail

The Parika Small Lake Nature Trail starts in Aimla village, Viljandi County, and leads through bog pine forest to a small heart-shaped lake. The out-and-back route of about three kilometres includes a wider section covered with wood chips, rest spots and information boards. By the lake there is a shelter and a jetty; a short boardwalk also leads to a complex of bog pools. The trail shows how drier forest gradually turns into bog landscape. The nature trail lies in a nature reserve, so keep to the marked path and bear in mind the condition of the water and the ground.
