Gliding across the Rummu lake with a SUP board is pure joy.

It is a relaxing activity that, after a little practice, is within the reach of most people. At Paekalda, there are both regular and large XXL SUP tables, which can accommodate the whole family at the same time.

Rafting and canoeing are fun team activities that are affordable for everyone.

Raft and canoe trips with different structures are organized in the Rummu quarry, where you pass over the underwater world, and as a stopover you can also visit the famous Rummu ash mountains and the area of the prison walls.

Some hikes also include an exciting tour of the old buildings of the Murru prison.

At dusk, you can explore the water depths of the Rummu quarry with a lighted bottom motor raft and/or rubber rafts.

These trips are ideal for anyone who wants to spend an evening exploring the nocturnal Rummu quarry lake. You can sit comfortably on the raft and enjoy the views while the raft travels around the lake. However, if you are interested in moving the oars yourself, you can go on a trip with lighted rubber rafts.

In the darkness of night, we get to know the underwater prison ruins, the sunken forest and other exciting things that lie in the depths of the water. With the help of lighting, the lake can be seen from a completely different side than we are used to during the day.

Exciting and memorable electric bike tours.

Riding a Fatbike bike/scooter powered by an electric motor is affordable for everyone – the quiet electric motor does most of the work and the hiker can focus his energy on exploring the surroundings. During the hikes, you drive around the Rummu quarry on the winding hiking trails, visit unique and special places, as well as the famous Rummu ash mountains and the area of the prison walls.

Vasalemma manor (Wassalem in German) was a knight’s manor in Harju County, Harju-Madis parish. In the Middle Ages, the village of Vasalemma and its surroundings were part of the lands of the Padis monastery. The manor was owned by Thomas von Ramm.

Vasalemma’s beautiful, fully preserved Neo-Gothic mansion was built in 1890-1893 from local dolomite, the so-called Vasalemma marble. An elementary school has been operating since 1919 in a gorgeous English-style manor house with an octagonal stepped tower, stepped windows and tall arched windows.

Padis Monastery was a Cistercian monastery built in Padis in the 14th century, founded by monks from Dynamünde. Padis Monastery is an architectural and historical object of great importance both in Estonia and throughout Northern Europe.

The construction of the Padis monastery went on for more than 200 years with breaks. Around 1250, the Dynamünde monastery built an early Gothic limestone chapel in Padise.

In 1305, the Danish king Erik Menved gave permission for the construction of a magnificent fortified monastery complex, which began to be built in 1317. The establishment of the monastery was probably already planned in the 13th century. The monastery was built near the ancient fortress of Padis of the Estonians.

By 1343, the first or basement floor and part of the walls of the main floor were completed. Then the Jüriöö uprising began and the monastery was burned and 28 monks in the monastery were killed.

The modern Pakri lighthouse was built in the 19th century. Its opening took place on October 1, 1889. The lighthouse is still in use for its intended purpose to this day.

The Pakri lighthouse is equipped with the latest technology. Its lamps are powered by solar energy and controlled by a computer. In addition, the lighthouse can attract the attention of sailors with sound signals during heavy fog.

The distance from the lighthouse to the edge of the cliff is 143 meters. Limestone was used as a building material in its construction. The lighthouse stairs have 275 steps.

Since the establishment of the lighthouse, Pakri has survived several renamings. It was originally called Rogerwiek Lighthouse from the name of the town. Later it was renamed Pakerortsk. The lighthouse got its current name in 1920.

The Pakri lighthouse is open to visitors and functions as a museum and viewing platform. There is a cafe in the vicinity.
