Itinerary description

The trail to the very end of Sääretirp is one of the most famous trails in Hiiumaa. It is an amazing narrow cape in the south part of the Kassari area. A gravel road surrounded by junipers leads you to the end of the cape. While walking to the end of the esker the land gets narrower and narrower, finally disappearing to the sea. Its higher parts are covered with vegetation, but the further one goes, the more a beach full of pebbles it becomes. Unique trees and shrubs grow there: honeysuckle, alder buckthorn, buckthorn, and snowball tree. There is an abundance of sea kale on the shores, which make the beach an amazing sight during the flowering period.
For a person in wheelchair it is better to visit Sääretirp with an assistant. There are some difficult parts where gravel is loose, and the wheelchair might get stuck.
