Soomaa is best known for its extra season. In Soomaa National Park, the early spring floods render up to 17,500 hectares of lower forests, roads and meadows only navigatable by water. The floods start when one of the local rivers overflows its banks, ushering in an otherworldly fifth season and a magical way to immerse yourself in nature. Especially in a canoe! This deluge is something akin to a 'fifth season' - when canoes can be paddled along roads, through forests and sometimes even in yards. One of a kind experience!

Aksi Island is the neighboring island of Prangli, which is why it's often called "Little Prangli." What impresses visitors most are the island's extraordinary natural landscapes. Thanks to the Aksberg family who once lived here, Aksi is known for its shipbuilding history. On the island, you can see a unique stone labyrinth dating back to 1849 and hear fascinating stories about the island's colorful settlement before World War II.
