Hikes
Sunset spring hikeFRI 26.07 at 20.00, starts in front of the Kondas Centre
The hike takes you to the springs of Viljandi. We talk about water, taste the water and listen to the water. This year’s festival theme is “Patterns and Traces” which gives us a lot to talk about during our hike. The springs often flow secretly from the bottom of the lakes, sometimes dribble from the cracks in the wall or babble between the rocks. How to notice the flow of the water? How to find a spring? What kind of patterns does the (spring)water leave? We visit the “Taevaskoda” of Viljandi and do a few other things if the weather allows. We undertake a few simple spring water testing experiments. The spring hike lasts until sunset. The hike is guided by the man of nature Peep Tobreluts.
Midnight hike
SAT 27.07 at 01.00 (on the second festival night after the Friday programme has ended), starts in front of the Kondas Centre
The hike starts at 1 o’clock at night. This year we plan to sneak around, to move as quietly as possible. We walk through the sleepy town, exploring the new in the old town and listen to the sounds of the town. We look at roofs and chimneys, treetops and stars. Without making any noise! The hike is guided by the man of nature Peep Tobreluts.
NB! For safety reasons, we can only allow 15 people to join the hike and underage participants are only allowed if accompanied by an adult. Get there early to guarantee a spot!
