Timeline
15:11
Grab a warm drink and a snack at Weis. It is a short 8-minute walk from the park entrance, making it a perfect spot to start before the sun dips low.
15:41
Walk to the shore of Lake Harku. The lake draws a lot of people, so arrive with time to find a quiet spot on the bank. Watch out for vipers on the shore and keep an eye on the water as the golden light hits the surface.
16:06
Head back to Weis to stay warm after the chill of the lakeside. The restaurant stays open until 22:00, giving you plenty of time to linger over your food and watch the evening settle.
Local tip
The sun sets toward the SW, so position yourself on the eastern side of the lake for the best view. Swimming is not always recommended due to water quality, so stick to the shore for this experience.
