We offer the opportunity, if the weather is suitable, to participate in walking or cycling trips organized by our leisure activities manager, which will help you get to know local attractions and add moderate physical activity to your daily schedule. Below you will also find a selection of ideas for spending your free time without going far from the spa treatment center. The area around Värska is a great place to cycle around. We have well-maintained light traffic roads, the landscape is diverse, there are many cultural and historical sites that are close to the roads, and nature is a feast for the eyes in both sun and rain. The roads are not crowded – you can enjoy silence and solitude for kilometers. We will determine the length and route of the cycle trip before the trip begins. Up to 8 people can participate in the trip. You will forget everything else during your vacation and can breathe fully while driving. Nordic walking is a form of exercise specially developed for modern people, while retaining everything good and necessary from normal walking. Nordic walking is easy and affordable for everyone – the movements are simple and natural, and the technique can be learned after just a few hundred meters. The advantage of Nordic walking is that it is good to do stretching exercises with poles before and after practicing. Nordic walking can be done all year round, it is simple and easy to learn, while being safe and accessible to everyone. Our hike takes place on gravel and forest roads, where you can enjoy pine forests, birch groves, meadows and get to know the milieu of old Setomaa villages. In the second half of summer, the forests are rich in berries and mushrooms, and cranberries are red in the bogs. We will determine the length and route of the Nordic walking hike before the hike begins. Up to 10 people can participate in the hikes.
