The Shepherd’s Adventure Trail.
The Shepherd’s Path leads through a mysterious forest. The forest is sacred and must be respected and protected. Our ancestors considered trees, stones and springs sacred and brought good luck to the forest spirits. If you move especially quietly in the forest, you can even meet fairies and hear their secret whispers.

The World of the Farm Child is a new playful exhibition aimed at families at the Estonian Open Air Museum. Its aim is to bring children from the smart world to the middle of nature and introduce environmentally friendly thinking through the everyday life of an Estonian farm. In the World of the Farm Child, families gain new knowledge by experiencing and discovering for themselves, actively moving and playing, looking at the surroundings through the eyes of an old-time country child.
