Majakivi, Protected glacial boulder in Lahemaa National Park, Estonia

Located in Kuusalu Rural Municipality, Majakivi stands six meters tall as an irregularly shaped boulder within a landscape of rich biodiversity.

Russian mineralogist Vasily Severgin examined the origins of Estonian glacial boulders in 1815, connecting their formation to the movement of ancient ice sheets.

Estonian glacial boulders represent significant natural monuments, with Majakivi being part of the largest concentration of massive boulders in Northern Europe.

The boulder area maintains specific climbing routes, though visitors should note that the surrounding ground remains wet throughout most of the year.

Registered under code KLO4001038 in the EELIS object register, Majakivi serves as both a climbing destination and a protected geological formation.
