Suur Munamägi, which translates as Big Egg Hill, is the highest hill in Estonia, reaching 318 meters. It happens to be in Haanja national park in Võrumaa so the views from tower at the top are over tree covered hills with a few patches of fields.
As often happens in Estonia at unexpected moments, a small detail, which one could easily miss, catches your attention, such as this wooden owl in a tree, while climbing up to the tower.
For more information about visiting the tower, visit the Suur Munamägi website.
