Itinerary description
The half part of this hike is through dense forest but with an easily distinguishable path. The second part involves Vahu Canal, which connect the Adriatik Sea with Karavasta Lagoon and a hike through sand dunes and Divjaka beach.
The hike starts by one of the entrance door of the southern forest (WP 1), approx. 1.3 km NE from the entrance of the park. The road follows SW through dense forest and easy to follow the track for approx. 1.5 km when the path divides, one follows S (left side) and the other one follows SW (WP 2). The path runs SW through dense forest until we reach the bridge of Vahu
Canal (WP 3). After that we turn NW with the forest in our right and the sea in our left. The route follows N through the beach sand. We pass a big bunker near Divjaka Hotel (WP 4) and continue either near of the sea or forest until we reach the main car road which is also the center of the park (WP 5). To get back to the WP 1, you should follow the automobile road for approx. 2, 5 k
