Going out¶
Gay scene¶
- X-Baar: Kommandandi tee 2, Tallinn, open daily from 4 pm. Moved since I was there in 2017. (Google Maps)
- HELLo! Baar: Vaike Karja 1, close to Town Hall square. (Google Maps)
- Club 69 is the only gay sauna in Estonia. Not all days are gay anymore! (Google Maps)
- Experienced, very small and dirty. Definitely not recommended
- maleSecrets: a sex/cruising bar in an apartment building in the gay neighbourhood. (FaceBook profile) (Google Maps)
- Experienced. The place was rather empty on a weekday evening. On Saturday night there as a fetish party that week, a bit more people but not much action.
Hiking¶
-
Pääsküla Raba Matkarada Bog educational trail is just outside the city and can be reached by public transportation. (Google Maps)
-
Paljassaare: Has some gravel trails. There is an observation tower and an unofficial nude beach, but I found multiple locations: near Pikakari (according to NudePlaces.de) or in the reserve (don't know anymore where I got that location). It can also be combined with a walk along Pikakari beach.
-
Nice hike on WikiLoc: Paljassaare Peninsula Hike (13,6km), nearby tram stops are Sitsi and Maleva, nearby bus stops are Ajutine peatus and Lahesuu. Note that the tram also passes close to Viru Square
-
There is a bus stop near Pikakari beach, on Google Maps as Pikakari, that can be used as a starting point for a shorter walk in just the nature reserve.
-
-
Pirita River Valley Nature Reserve, between the TV tower and the beach.
-
Done in 2017.
-
Pirita Health Track is a 7.2km circuit on both banks of the Pirita river that is also illuinated. Starts at the Velodrome.
-
-
Difficult to reach without a car: Lahemaa National Park has lots of hiking opportunities
