Hiking & outdoor recreationLength1.4 km
Located next to Vallisaari, Kuninkaansaari Island is also worth a visit. You can get from Vallisaari to the neighbouring island by walking across a stone causeway connecting the two islands. The causeway provides an outstanding view of the open sea towards Tallinn. Crossing the causeway is an particularly part of the hike, as you can feel the sea on your skin in windy weather. The Kuninkaansaari Island Tour runs through the island to the sandy bay located on the eastern shore and back. Old fortifications are visible along the trail. The trail is easy to hike and suitable for families with children. Most of the trail is a wide and fairly flat sandy road, with the exception of the stone causeway, which has shallow potholes in some places. A few climbs and the uneven surface of the causeway mean that the trail is not accessible.
