Jaani-Tooma suurkivi

Jaani-Tooma suurkivi is a large granite boulder sitting in a juniper meadow within Lahemaa National Park. The rock rises approximately 7.5 meters high and spans about 34.7 meters around its base.

Glacial movements carried this boulder from Finland roughly 20,000 years ago and left it in its present location about 13,000 years ago. The stone settled during the final stages of ice age activity in the region.

The boulder features 12 documented climbing routes of varying difficulty levels, making it a destination for rock climbing practitioners in northern Estonia.

The boulder is accessible on foot from Kasispea village via marked walking trails through the meadow. Plan your visit for spring or autumn when conditions are most comfortable for exploring the area.

The stone is composed of rapakivi granite, a rock type rarely found in such large forms in Estonia. Researchers value it as an important geological specimen for understanding ice age deposits.
