Hirvepark

Hirvepark is a municipal park in the Vanalinn district containing more than 100 different tree species that create a dense canopy throughout the grounds. Paved pathways wind through the area and connect various sections designed for walking and resting.

The park hosted a major public gathering in 1987 against Soviet rule that drew thousands of Estonian protesters. This event became a pivotal moment in the movement for Estonian independence.

Locals use the park as a daily retreat for walking and spending time among the trees, especially those with dogs seeking green space. The winding paths and scattered benches create informal gathering spots where people pause to rest and socialize.

The park is accessible from multiple entry points around the Vanalinn district and has designated areas for dog walking. Wear sturdy shoes since pathways can be uneven in some sections.

Each tree species in the park has an identification tag that helps visitors recognize the different types as they walk. This turns the space into an outdoor learning resource for those curious about trees.
