A coastal wind meets the bus windows as the road claws east from Tallinn toward a spine of pines and shoreline. Within an hour the landscape opens: low rocky bays, wooden villas at Käsmu, and a ribbon of boardwalk leading out over a peat-browned bog. On this eight‑hour loop through Lahemaa National Park and the North‑Coast, visitors move from the thunder of Jägala Waterfall to the stillness of Viru Bog, trading city hum for gull calls and bog-scented air.
