European Birdwatch Weekend in Estonia
A four-day autumn migration break combining Estonia’s coast, Nigula raised bog and European Birdwatch activities in a small group.
About this tour
This compact October programme is built around the European Birdwatch weekend, when visible migration can be sampled from the Estonian coast and nearby wetland landscapes.
Coastal observation is paired with a day in Nigula’s raised bog and old forest, offering a mix of cranes, geese, waterbirds, raptors and woodland species. The programme suits travellers who want a short, focused introduction to Estonia’s autumn bird movement.
Prices vary with final group size and remain subject to Adrian’s confirmation.
