Emajõe Suursoo: A Kayak Expedition Through Estonia's Largest Bog

Our kayak trip through Emajõe Suursoo took us along quiet rivers, across open lakes, and through mysterious reed beds — a journey that was equal parts peaceful and punishing. Starting from Kavastus, we made our way through the waterways leading to Koosa, Otisaare and Praaga, then continued along the Kalli and Leego rivers. Rain, wind and headwaves made it a real challenge, but the hidden reed tunnels, a pine forest campsite and a gloriously sunny final day made every one of those 37 kilometres worth it. Emajõe Suursoo is a place that leaves a mark on you — wild, silent and utterly unlike anywhere else.
