The main time of my visit I stayed at the headquarters of Karula Nationalpark in Võru County. All the pics below are from this small nationalpark that actually only covers about 12 squarekilometers. It is a hilly area and consists of pineforest, several bogs, lots of ponds, beaver-dams and a few lakes.
