The river is Silla’s defining feature. The Reiu jõgi runs through Silla küla and is publicly accessible. For orientation, it is also important to note that the section from the mouth to the railway bridge is part of the navigable inland waterways. This makes the village particularly suitable for travellers looking for accommodation with a clear connection to river landscapes and waterways.

The old railway bridge in the village offers a beautiful view. The bridge is also a specific reference point in the history of the village: it is the Sindi-Lodja arch bridge, built in 1933. The name Silla, which refers to the numerous bridges over the river, therefore directly corresponds to the visible surroundings.

The old railway bridge provides access to Raeküla. This information is useful for planning if you do not want to limit your stay exclusively to the immediate riverbank. The Reiu jõgi itself offers another option: from Reiu Puhkekeskus, you can travel by watercraft across the river directly to Pärnu laht and then to the Pärnu jõgi. This allows you to experience Silla from the perspective of a waterway as well.

Paintball is also available at Reiu Puhkekeskus by prior booking. This activity complements a stay by the water with an organised leisure option. If you would like to plan such an activity, the need to book in advance should be taken into account when planning your trip.

Silla’s landscape is suitable for forest, water and nature recreation. Depending on your personal interests, you can focus on the river, the view from the old railway bridge or the village surroundings. The Reiu-Raeküla dune pine forest is also located near Silla and is considered a valuable urban recreation and sports area.

The Reiu jõgi is also included on the list of bodies of water protected as habitats for salmonids. This aspect adds an ecological dimension to the landscape without reducing the river to a single leisure activity. Travellers who want to combine water landscapes and forest areas can therefore gain a broader perspective on Silla.

Joosep holiday home in Silla küla specialises in accommodating families and groups of friends of up to 12 people. This specific information may play a role when choosing the type of accommodation if you are travelling with several people.

The location on the Reiu jõgi can also influence your decision: if bridges and landscapes are your main interests, the old railway bridge is the main point of reference. If you would like to include watercraft or a booked activity, Reiu Puhkekeskus and its services are relevant points of orientation. Distances, amenities and availability should always be checked with the specific accommodation.

During construction of the Sindi-Lodja Bridge, bus routes 15, 26, 28 and 29 travelling towards Silla will temporarily stop at bus stops on Jõekalda tee. This information expressly applies during the construction period. If you are travelling by bus, you should therefore take the current bus stop situation for your travel date into account.
