Cycling Route
Details

Undulation is a key word to describe the character of South Estonian gravel roads. Yet one particular road stands out in this respect. It is the sector from Old Otepää to Neeruti, 4 km / 2.5 mi in length, which gives an impression of sailorman’s course cut straight through high seawaves. The sector is introduced by a view to Tehvandi ski jumping hill, which can be used as another metaphor for the sector hills. The M-edition of the route starts and ends at the Lucky Luke park. It encompasses almost the same amount of distinctively undulating gravel roads as its bigger L-sister. These offer a first class training for your momentum maintainance. Or await you to discover them as a symbolical journey through ups and downs of life. At the end of it, you can surely expect to be born into a new one.
