Mõedaka: Ski Trails and Paths for Active Days

Other options include tennis, a start and finish venue for cross-country skiing competitions, and motor-related activities.

Winter Ski Trails by Length

When there is snow, the Mõedaku Sports Centre offers ski trails of various lengths. The winter fitness and ski trails include routes of 1, 2, 3, 5, 7.5, and 10 km, as well as a 2.8 km illuminated route. The trail configuration may change as trails are maintained, so it is advisable to check the current route before making specific plans. The range of 1 to 10 km makes the available distances easy to compare and helps you tailor your cross-country skiing day to your preferred distance. If a particular route is important for your stay, take this maintenance note into account when planning.
