What does the Kose ski trail offer?

The Kose ski trail has 2 km and 4 km routes, of which 2 km are illuminated. You can choose between a classic track and a skating track. This gives you two factors to consider: which route length suits your planned winter activity, and which skiing technique do you prefer? The lighting applies to the 2 km section.

Route information is current as of February 17, 2026, and may change; grooming may also vary by season. If the ski trail is an important part of your winter plans, check the current trail features and grooming conditions before your trip.

What does the Kose Parish Museum tell you?

The Kose Parish Museum was founded in 1958 as a local history corner at Kosejõe School. It preserves objects, documents, books and photographs. Its beginnings at the school and its collection offer different ways to explore local history: the founding year tells the story of the museum’s origins, while the types of material in the collection show what forms of material are preserved.

For travelers interested in culture, this brings together a specific historical connection and a wide-ranging collection. Objects can be distinguished from written and visual materials; documents, books and photographs add further forms of historical record to the collection.

What event traditions are there?

The spring market tradition “Kose Kutsub Külla” dates back to 1996. The Kose Parish Days are a traditional week-long event with a program covering culture, history and nature. The two formats have different emphases: the market represents a long-standing tradition, while the Parish Days offer a week-long program covering several topics.

Dates and the program for the Parish Days change from year to year. If you would like to plan your trip around them, check the details for the relevant edition. This way, you can include the event in your plans without assuming that its dates and content stay the same.

What should you know about the swimming pool?

As of September 8, 2026, children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult in the swimming pool at Kose Spordimaja. If you are planning a visit with children, check this rule again before your trip.

As part of a municipal project, a health pool and a children’s pool were added alongside the large pool. For your planning, keep this separate from the supervision rule: also check current operating details before your visit.
