This charming path is clearly marked with kilometer posts and pickets every 100 meters, ensuring you never lose your way. While traversing the Haapsalu-Rohuküla section, don't miss the chance to visit the intriguing remains of Ungru Castle, just a short detour from the path. There's also the old airfield in Kiltsi, which adds a touch of history to your journey.

As you make your way through the Haapsalu-Risti section near Taebla, take a moment to explore the Laikmaa Museum and Koela Museum, along with the serene beauty of Lääne-Nigula Church. These spots offer a delightful mix of art, culture, and history, making your trip even more enriching. When you're near Risti, be sure to check out the Marimetsa bog. It's a stunning natural haven where you can experience the tranquility of Estonia's wetlands. Did you know this area is also known for its diverse birdlife? So, keep your binoculars handy for some impromptu birdwatching.
