Lahemaa National Park
Roughly 31 miles (50km) east of Tallinn, Lahemaa National Park
is a popular day trip for tourists looking to explore the Estonian
countryside. The park contains varied terrain and ecosystems that
include forests, swamps, bogs and even beaches. A number of marked
trails make hiking a good activity, and visitors can take a rest at
Sagadi Manor, a 500-year-old building that is now an education
centre with a forest museum, hotel and restaurant.
Information & Facts
Language
Locals speak Estonian, which is part of the Finno-Ugric
family of languages. English is widely used and understood among
the younger generation and those involved in the tourist
industry.
Money
The Estonian currency is now the Euro, as the Kroon (EEK) was
discontinued from 2011. Foreign currency can be easily exchanged at
hotels, banks and exchange bureaux in the larger towns, at the
airport and main railway station. Major credit cards are generally
accepted in the larger hotels, main restaurants and shops, but it
is wise to check first. Preferred travellers cheques in Estonia are
Amex, Thomas Cook and Eurocheque. Banking hours are weekdays 9am to
4pm. Exchange bureaux are open till 6pm on weekdays and from 9am to
3pm on Saturdays. Some open on Sundays. ATMs are available in most
towns.
