Uuemõisa – Park, Nature and Coastal Trails

Uuemõisa combines protected landscapes, a manor house with a park and various ways to make your stay active. Anyone looking for a holiday apartment in Uuemõisa can plan their trip according to different interests: with a round of disc golf, a walk through the manor park, a section of the coastal hiking trail or an excursion towards Haapsalu.

Natural surroundings between the park and protected areas

Uuemõisa is located within the Silma Nature Reserve. In addition, the Väinameri protected area extends into the northern part of Uuemõisa. As a result, the natural surroundings are one of the defining features of the place. When choosing your accommodation, you can consider whether you primarily want to experience quiet paths, protected landscapes or varied activities in the surrounding area.

The park of Uuemõisa Manor plays a special role. It is designated as a protected park and has a network of gravel-covered footpaths. In the park, bridges lead to the island in the pond. These details give a walk a specific destination and make the park interesting even for a more relaxed day of your holiday. You can plan the tour as an activity in its own right or combine it with a visit to the historic estate.

Manor house and local history

Uuemõisa Manor was first mentioned in 1539 as a bishop's estate. The year places the site within a long history and adds a cultural perspective to a nature-focused stay. For travellers who want to combine landscapes and historic places, the manor park is therefore one of the most natural focal points of their stay. The protected park landscape, the pond with its island and the gravel-surfaced paths also give the historic setting its own character.

Disc golf and hiking with different focuses

The Uuemõisa disc golf park is an 18-basket disc golf course. This allows you to add a sporting activity to your stay without having to leave the area for every outing. Those who prefer hiking will find different sections of the coastal hiking trail with varying routes. The Rohuküla–Haapsalu–Uuemõisa section ends in Uuemõisa Park. It can therefore be combined with the park as a destination.

The Uuemõisa–Elbiku section is different: it runs mostly alongside the road. This difference is important when planning your day. If you are looking for a route that ends at the manor park, the Rohuküla–Haapsalu–Uuemõisa section suits this idea. If you choose the Uuemõisa–Elbiku section, you should take its predominantly roadside route into account from the outset. This allows you to base your hiking choice on the desired character of the route without treating the two sections as equivalent.

Uuemõisa as a base for Haapsalu

A bus connection as well as a cycling and walking route lead from the Suvehostel in green Uuemõisa to the centre of Haapsalu. This direct connection expands the options for planning your trip. You can focus your stay on nature and park experiences in Uuemõisa while also planning a visit to the centre of Haapsalu. When looking for a holiday apartment or other accommodation, you should therefore consider whether you want to spend most of your days in the nature reserve and park or also use routes towards Haapsalu.

Uuemõisa is therefore suitable as a destination for travellers who want to combine nature, local history and active pursuits. The manor park with its gravel paths and bridges, the 18-basket disc golf course and the different sections of the coastal hiking trail offer several options for planning your days. A suitable holiday apartment in Uuemõisa can serve as your own base for the experiences you have planned.
