Naturobjekte in Estland

Was ist das Besondere an der Natur in Estland?

In Estland steht die beeindruckendste Felswand im Baltikum - das sogenannte nordestnische "Glitzern" (aus estnischer Sprache). Estland hat sein eigenes "Land der Buchten" - die Region Lahemaa mit ihrem Nationalpark, das "Land der Inseln" - die Insel Saaremaa und den Monzund-Archipel. Die Matsalu-Bucht ist eine der wichtigsten Raststätten für Vögel während ihrer Wanderung. In Estland gibt es einen der bekanntesten Einschlagkrater in Europa, es gibt die größten Wasserfälle und Felsbrocken im Baltikum, den Munamagi-Hügel - den höchsten Punkt im Baltikum, den Peipus-See - den fünftgrößten See in Europa - mit langen Hervorragende Fischertraditionen und die Vielfalt der Natur von West nach Ost, von Nord nach Süd.
