The lovely Jägala waterfall is only 30 minutes away from Tallinn. Visiting the spectacular waterfall in wintertime (December-March) is a fantastic experience. Often in winter, the temperatures drop to freezing, and the waterfall turns into a gleaming ice wall. During this time, the biggest natural waterfall in Estonia offers breathtaking views with its large icicles. Sometimes, it’s even possible to walk behind a wall of ice. After enjoying one of Estonia’s eight most photographed places, we have a cozy winter picnic with homemade pies. Tasting local Estonian schnapps and hot tea will keep you warm. The tour takes no more than two hours, so you have plenty of time to do sightseeing in Tallinn for the rest of the day. Read also about custom-made winter tours in Tallinn, Estonia.

Tour Reviews
Loved ♥️ Nele. Great picnic-homemade pickles, Estonian cheese with sun-dried tomatoes, dark breadsticks, local candy, strudel, Vana Tallinn Estonian Spirit, flavored mineral water, fresh cherry tomatoes. The waterfall was not as tall as we anticipated but it was running freely. I had arranged the trip for 4 of us & was worried they might not like it but they said it was the highlight of their day!
The waterfall hadn’t yet frozen when we saw it but it is wonderful to see it in full flow. The colour of the water is amazing. Our guide, Keidi, was very friendly and gave us lots of information about the waterfall and the area. We enjoyed the light picnic (meat, cheese and sweet snacks with tea and a ‘health’ drink). I understand that the waterfall is very busy with visitors in the summer. We were the only people there on our visit, so we were fortunate. Highly recommended.
Excellent tour to the waterfalls and through the surrounding areas. A very cute picnic set up with homemade food and fresh tea. Able to spend free time at the waterfall and our guide was very knowledgable!
