ATV, motorbike, snowmobile safari

Põlvamaa is an excellent place for adrenaline seeking motor fans. 

One of ODYL Founders, Margus, is a huge fan of off-road motorcycling and snowmobiling. And that’s why the off-grid house is located in Põlvamaa.

Ask for advice if you are interested in motorsports in the countryside and we will help you organise a tour.

Nature Photography

Estonia is an ideal location for taking nature photographs since there is a high likelihood that no human is around.

Let us know if you would like us to put you in contact with nature photography tour operators. There are mane wolves, bears, boars, moose, even some flying squirrels around at certain times of the year.

Bird watching

We know very little about bird watching, but apparently the area close to ODYL Holidays House is quite spectacular and different from coastline bird watching experiences. 

Let us know if you’d like us to put you in touch with bird watching tour operators. 

Forest foods: mushrooms, berries

Mushroom picking

The forests close to ODYL Holiday House are some of the best places for mushroom picking. When you happen to visit us during the mushroom picking season, take the time to go for a relaxing walk, eat some blueberries, collect the mushrooms you know are edible and cook your own dinner!

Let us know if you’d like us to share a map of potential mushroom/berry picking locations in the area.
