A road trip across Estonia in early spring gives a nature lover his fill of frozen lakes and secluded bogs.
EVER SINCE 2013, when I visited Estonia in summer, I wanted to see it clad in snow. So, I planned a second trip in early spring last year, a three-day road trip across Estonia.
My first base was the capital, Tallinn. A stroll in the Old Town, surrounded by colourful buildings, was akin to a wormhole into the past. There were fewer tourists as compared to summer. The next morning, my friends, Kadri and Herman, and I rented a car from a local rental and kicked off our road trip. Our first stop was the second largest town of Estonia, Tartu. Home to one of Northern Europe’s oldest universities, Tartu has a wealth of museums and an upbeat nightlife. As soon as you arrive, you are welcomed by a statue of kissing students standing in the middle of an old fountain at the town hall square.
