During different periods, Estonia has been the country with the highest lynx population density and the local individuals are one of the largest in the world. Its’ main prey – Roe Deer, is doing better year after and so is the local lynx population. Right now, an estimated 550-600 Eurasian Lynx inhabit the forests of Estonia, and one of the best areas to spot them is Lahemaa National Park in the northeastern part of the country. March is the mating season for the main target of this tour but a great time to look for the lynx is autumn when the temperatures have dropped and mammals have become more active again. The species spectrum is very similar to early spring. Although this tour concentrates on the Eurasian Lynx, we will most likely also meet other mammals sharing the same habitats, such as Elk, Roe Deer, Snow Hare, Pine Marten, and Raccoon Dogs, just to name the main ones. Daytime will be used for resting and looking for bird specialties, such as the forest grouse and woodpeckers. If the snow conditions are suitable, we would also go lynx-tracking. Evening excursions will give us also the chance to spot several species of owls, such as the Ural Owl and Pygmy Owl. Looking for the lynx will be done with thermal imagery binoculars and we start usually an hour/half an hour before sunset. Usually, we look until late in the evening or sometimes even until the first hours of the new day depending on our success and level of tiredness.

Sorgu is a small uninhabited island in Pärnu Bay, near Kihnu and Manija islands. The most valued aspects of the island are its untouched nature and the abundance of seabird species, including cormorants. If you love berry-picking, then August-October is the ideal time to come on the trip because that's when the dewberries are ripe! A lot of berries grow on Sorgu island because ferries don't regularly come here, and therefore there are only a few berry pickers. We will take you and your group to the island by a kayak, a motorboat or a sailboat, where we will fill our buckets with berries, have a fresh jam sandwich, and take a look at the island with a tour guide!
