Eastern Saaremaa Vilsandi Rahvus park

On 13 july 1999 three groups of our camp went to north east Saaremaa. On the way to Laialepa laht we stopped at an island near the very shallow coast. This small island, hardly visible on this photo, but present a little to the left was called Tarja. This picture is made from the many, many watching towers build in the end seventies (the building years often were 1969 till 1977). Some were even to Estonian habits that dangerous that they removed the first 20 steps so it was not possible to climb the towers any more. Some of our group were dropped at Koruse (also the only place were we saw 'Wilde zwijnen') to watch the hot and dry alvar but most of them went to Kiipsaare nukk. This is a light house that is, just like the tower of Pisa, not stand straight up. In this sea charophytes were found.



Vilsandi National Park-Three groups went to the 'light tower of Pisa', called Kiipsaare nukk at Uudpanga laht


In this photo album you can find pictures made during a Dutch summercamp of the senioren of the youth bond JNM and NJN (Jeugdbond voor Natuur en Milieu studie).

Characeae or Muskgrass

At Laialepa laht(Kiipsaare nukk) seven monsters were collected for determination in Holland. Only Chara aspera was present. This is species is also often found in dune waters in Holland. C. aspera is often known from shallow waters with sandy soil, common in dune lakes
