Discover Urge
Accommodation in Urge
Urge combines animal-related experiences, handcrafted ice cream, a distinctive karst landscape, and a cycling and walking path.
Places to visit in Urge include Rehetalu Urge, Jäämari, Urge karst valley, and the Urge–Prillimäe–Salutaguse cycling and walking path. The focuses differ: one place is about animals and farming, another about food and production, while others focus on observing nature and physical activity. Distances between these destinations are not provided. The location of accommodation therefore cannot be based on presumed proximity to any single destination.
Quick facts about Urge
At Rehetalu Urge, visitors can experience rabbits, alpacas, and exotic birds up close. The offering is not limited to observation: practical workshops on sustainable farming and animal care are also available. This creates two different types of visits. Those primarily interested in getting to know the animals will find a specific opportunity for interaction; those more interested in agricultural work and handling animals can focus on the workshop.
Knowledgeable guides also lead tours of the farm. The guided farm tours are suitable for visitors of all ages. For a travel group with different interests, the guided format may therefore be a different choice from an independent stay on the premises.
What is there to discover at Jäämari?
Jäämari is known for handcrafted ice pops. Pure ingredients, as well as fresh fruit and fresh berries, are used. The culinary focus is therefore not on a generally described regional cuisine, but on a clearly defined product and its production. This makes Jäämari an independent destination for anyone who wants to combine a local visit with a specific taste experience.
A tour of the production building complements this offering. Visitors can see how handcrafted ice cream is made. The tour therefore explains not only the finished product but also makes the production site part of the visit. The address is important for finding your way there: Jäämari is located at Kiriku tee 2, Urge küla, 79743.
Which nature and activity destinations are included?
Urge karst valley provides a landscape contrast to the farm and food offerings. The karst feature lies south of the village of Aandu; the Kadaka oja stream disappears underground there. This means that the focus is not merely on a general natural area, but on a specific geological phenomenon showing a visible connection between the watercourse and the ground below.
The Urge–Prillimäe–Salutaguse cycling and walking path is 1.9 km long and was officially opened on November 21, 2022. The path offers a different way to spend your time than a guided tour or a visit to a production building. If you would like to compare other destinations, you can also look at Lohu and Kohila.
How do you choose where to stay in Urge?
The four destinations have different focuses. First decide whether animals and farming, Jäämari, the karst feature, or the cycling and walking path is most important for your travel plans. Shared routes, travel times, or distances between them remain unspecified.
