The total length of the hiking trail in the primeval valley of the Piusa River is 15 km from the ruins of the Vastseliina Episcopal Castle to Lindora or vice versa. You can take the trail on foot, but parts of it are also passable either by bike or car. The highlights of the reserve are the tall Devonian sandstone outcrops – the tallest of them is the wall of Härma Mäemine or the Keldre Wall (total height 43 m, length 150 m). There are two camping sites – under the Make Wall on the first third of the trail and under the Härma Lower Wall towards the end of the trail.The object is not lighted, which is why we recommend to visit it during the day.
The Devil's Bridge in Tartu is one of the few remaining concrete bridges from the early 20th century. Together with the Angel's Bridge, it forms one of the symbols of Tartu. Everyone is welcome to walk on the bridge, especially visitors interested in history and architecture. The Devil's Bridge was built in 1913 to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty. It is decorated with a bronze relief of the Russian Emperor Alexander I, "Alexandro Primo." According to legend, the name "Devil's Bridge" comes from its dark appearance, which contrasts with the bright Angel's Bridge. The Devil's Bridge is ideal for walking or taking exciting photos!
