Timeline
15:05
Grab a cake and a hot drink at Café Werner. The large selection of baked goods is perfect for a sweet start before the walk.
15:25
Walk 21 minutes SSW to Toome Hill. Climb the hill to find the monuments and statues. The ground is uneven, so wear sturdy shoes.
15:55
Stand on Toome Hill as the sun sets toward the WNW. The golden light from 14:33 has already passed, but the sunset at 15:55 offers a crisp, clear view over the city. The hill provides an elevated perspective of the fading light.
16:25
Walk 16 minutes back toward the center to La Dolce Vita. It is open until 22:00 on weekdays, making it a warm place to digest your earlier pastry and enjoy the evening.
Local tip
The walk to Toome Hill is a steady climb. Bring a jacket as the wind can be chilly near sunset in January.
