Tallinn
Hi there :) Looking for "winter paradise"...
(12 )
We are going to have a 2-day-road trip by car from Tallinn. We are planning to visit Paldiski, Rummu ...
Is there any really good places/cities/activities to do?
Like "winter paradise"? Good sledding place? Husky ride?
Thank you in advance!

Keila-Joa looks usually very awesome, when it´s very cold outside. The water is frozen and makes beautiful sculptures.
Jägala waterfall is on the east from Tallinn, but that's even better during winter if frozen. Then it forms magical frozen caves.

Depending when you are doing the trip, but if it's been cold for a while then official ice roads will be opened on the North-West Estonia. So you can drive to the smaller islands on the frozen sea. That's pretty cool, but you need to check if the roads are open. Right now not yet, but maybe in couple of weeks.

Hey, Barbara!
Unfortunately my suggestions are not on your way, but hiking with Siberian huskies and sledding can be done at Paasiku Dogs Manor (http://paasikumanor.weebly.com).
Not too far away from it, 30 minute car ride, is for example Viru bog (http://www.puhkaeestis.ee/et/viru-raba-opperada). Just look at the Instagram pictures taken there during wintertime 😍 https://www.instagram.com/explore/locations/237015085/viru-raba/

It depends when you are coming, there are "ice skating on lake" and other trips in different places.

If you have 2 days, I recommend going to Lahemaa national park as well :) the forest should be amazing at the moment.
If you want I can make you a photo trip around Tallinn and countryside. Facebook page Vot, Tallinn
You might also check for a bog or trails in the forest. If we have snow it is already a winter wonderland. :) https://loodusegakoos.ee/where-to-go/search-options
