Kakerdaja Bog

Kakerdaja Bog is a wetland reserve in Järva Rural Municipality that forms part of a larger protected wetland complex. The landscape contains shallow pools, spongy moss-covered ground, and two distinct elevation zones that create varied terrain.

The wetland has served people since ancient times, when an island within the bog complex provided shelter and a location for gatherings. This long-standing connection between settlement and landscape continues to shape how the place is valued today.

The bog functions as a significant ecological preserve, maintaining the natural heritage of Estonian wetlands through protected status and conservation efforts.

A walking trail with wooden boardwalks provides dry passage through the wetland and easy access for visitors of different abilities. Reflectors and markers help guide you when conditions are dim or when you need to find your way back.

Thousands of water birds stop at the bog pools during spring and autumn migrations, forming large groups as they rest. This seasonal gathering attracts visitors who want to watch the different species pass through.
